whats your taxes
cost of home insurance
for those of us undecided and open to any and all ideas of where to relocate* *i think this would be more useful than just the mortgage and taxes you pay poll we now have going...

Re: value ,location and taxes on your home
Pasadena CA
1000SQ FT 2BD 1 BA built 1927
Appraised value (by bank, not for tax) $525K
RE tax $1,800
Insurance (w/o earthquake coverage) $650
So CA has a high income tax but low property tax. And if you owned before 1976 then RE tax is even lower.

What would the taxes be if the same home was bought today and had not yet got homestead exemption. In other words, what value are the home taxes based on?
It is not a fair assessment for those with homestead that have owned their homes for a while as tax increases are limited to 3% per year in FL with homestead.
A fairer pole would be based on if one purchased the home today, what would the taxes be. On a $425k home in FL in Duval County Jacksonville it would be about 1.8% of the assessed value which is pretty close to what one pays for the place initially, so say $400k which would be more like $7200 per year, or $600 per month!
Sorry, to interject with the poll, but for us renters who are considering buying, and like these type of polls to help with the rent vs buy calculations, that is a far more pertinent number.

Re: value ,location and taxes on your home
Having sold a 1750 sq ft, 3 bedroom, 2 bath (built in 1985) house in Austin TX for $156,000 last year, these home appraisal numbers you guys have are blowing my mind!
Property taxes were around $4,500.

Re: value ,location and taxes on your home
In Texas one can apply for a homestead exemption
the January following year of purchase, if the home
is your primary residence.
Property taxes are high in Texas because they are
the primary tax for schools. Property tax reform
was passed this year, but will not go into effect
until next year.
Texas, like Florida, has no state income tax.
