Tax office rejected my protest on my property value
Nov 2, 2018, 10:44 AM
|
|
What do now?
They valued my vehicle at 132% of what I actually paid for it brand new.
This effectively added 32% to my tax bill ($176)
I submitted the paperwork with the bill of sale, 1 week later I received a letter where they said their value was accurate and they would not change it.
Protest again? Hire conservativealex?

One thing cars rarely do is increase in value.

Yes, but they take it in the back (lulz) and review it later.

I'd go to a lawyer with the bill of sale.

But my car increases EVERY year in value. See, I have high mileage. But for SOME reason, Lexington County requires I submit a documented odometer reading every freaking year. THEN they lower it, every freaking year. I can qualify for high mileage 3 or 4 years in a row with what I have on it now. Sucks, but whatever.

I've wondered about that

I sold a boat to a guy in Alabama or Mississippi or some such place a long way away, and the tax came due the next year. I asked the CHS county Auditor what would happen if I didn't pay the taxes? He said they'd find the boat and put a lien on it. I said how would you know where it is? He didn't want to tell me they wouldn't do squat about it for a 2 year old 20' Sea Hunt, but I kinda got that feeling after he said "well you do what you have to do".

Don't pay the taxes. I have a plan

When the Bassmasters comes back to Hartwell this April, we will physically block the boat ramps at Green Pond. We will get Anderson County's attention then.

Maybe you didn't do it right.

Did you make a large sign and parade around the front the tax assessor's office while yelling a clever chant? Did you topple over any statues? Did you throw bricks through the front glass of a local retailer and then steal items off the shelf and run down the street carrying them? Did you turn over a police car and set it on fire?
If I'm reading correctly, I find your method of protesting pretty laughable, given the level that protests have risen to in these modern times.

You probably don't want them to cut it
Nov 2, 2018, 11:01 AM

They cut mine every now and then, but not frequent enough so it looks terrible after a few weeks. Then, when they do come through they drag so much gravel and trash with them, it becomes a nightmare when you have to cut it. They don't GAF, they'll plow right through glass bottles, gravel piles, asphalt, etc.
