Well. Isn't that nice. County reassessed property

Taxable value went up 55k. Sunnova......
Whole HOA Facebook page blew up. Seems like 20% increase in 8 years is a little steep. Whole ###### neighborhood went up. I'd appeal but I'm not sure. I got no clue our square footage. Builder said one thing. Tax assessor had 180 less square feet. Appraiser had 100 more square feet than the builder. At the highest square footage it's probably around market value.

lulz.
I'm not selling anytime soon, so I'd be fine if they assessed the whole place at $100.

Because you just increased the value of your ASSets with the new bathroom upgrade.

If you hadn’t advertised that you had fixed the moisture problem in your basement, this massive appreciation wouldn’t have occurred.

First clue came from mom. The house at the lake went way up and she emailed me. Then on Facebook the HOA group exploded. So I finally checked the mail. If I knew in fact that the square footage was what was on file at the courthouse, I'd appeal it. But I don't. You'd think the builder would know for sure. So I have a contract signed with the builder showing one number of square feet, what the builder filed at the courthouse has a lower number, and the appraisal we had done at the sale shows a higher number. I dunno.
What gets me I guess is our taxes go up every year anyway. Since we moved in they've gone up several hundred dollars incrementally, as they gently raised property tax rates. Then bewm, 20% more for reassessment. So you end up about +35% in 8 years.
Meanwhile, they're bitching about not having enough schools for the growing population. Meanwhile, they're planning to tear down two schools they just abandoned, to be replaced with grass for a freaking park. Meanwhile, they've issued bonds to build several new, massive schools. And meanwhile, their online classes SUCKED in the spring. Teachers had the shutdown totally off from what I can tell. Then they have some half-assed plan for classes in the fall, and online will still suck as well. No information on what's important, and they're forcing parents to make a decision without the most important details even discussed.

Two lunge points of order on the lake place:

1) always, always call it a “compound”.
2) even if it’s your mom’s place, call it “our lake house”.

If you saw it, it's hardly a compound

Just recently got drinkable water in it.
It's mom's lake house. She lives there. Heck, I have all of dad's guns, and they're still his guns. And he would tell you today several of those guns were his father's guns, and grandfather's guns.

20% over the last 8 years is probably correct

but not normal. It has been a hot market.
But if everyone goes up, taxes will not go up 20% - if the total base is up, millage rates will go down.

Over 30% if you count in their rate increases into the mix

See they incrementally increase the rate every year based on your old value. So we're already paying probably 15% more anyway based on the old tax value. Which is probably keeping up with market value. So are they going to lower the rate back to the 2012 level when they add 20% to the taxable value? Nope.
Bottom line is we're paying over 30% more in property taxes than when we moved in. The house has NOT appreciated 30-35% no matter how you estimate the market. I could see the 20% increase, possibly, but for almost that much in increases in the rate anyway.
