Golly, with tax increases *this* high, it’s really too bad they won’t be deductible.

The hills of Olympia will run red with democratic blood in the next several elections. Yes, the property tax increases were forthcoming due to the McCleary decision. But the dumbass fucking dems decided to pile on the consumption, carbon and gas taxes BEFORE the property tax increase. Welcome to a 30% COLA in 1 year, thanks to our beloved liberal dems of WA State.

For Seattle folks, what's the yearly property tax on an average home (roughly)? Say you have a 600K house in West Seattle, what's the yearly bill for that, or any examples any of you have.

Here's that whole states rights argument. Purple didn't care as much about state taxes as they wrote all of it off on their federal taxes. That's gonna change!

Now that I have move to the edge of the city (40 ish miles or so outside DC), my property taxes are really similar to what is being mentioned here. Fuck me. I thought Virginia was cheaper.

Property taxes in Riverside are 1.1% and you have an income tax that you can no longer write off.RaceBannon said:Its cheaper to live in So Cal

I rent.
I got a big tax cut two ways, individual and corporate. I don't need to heat or cool my house 10 months out of the year.
I vote for local politicians who want to lower state taxes
Our cost of living is lower here. Of course you may know better than me since you don't live here or live my life but still
its 1% if you don't have a mello roos or local surcharge
Since assessed values rise (or fall) to equal purchase price when a home is bought or sold, homeowners in Riverside County can expect to pay 1% plus the sum of local voter-approved rates. In the city of Riverside, total property tax rates range from 1.07% to 1.20%. -

At least.
At my age anyway -
Unless your landlord is eating the taxes every year, that's probably worked into your payment. Electricity rates are literally twice as expensive too, so it's a good thing you don't use it often.RaceBannon said:I rent.

You are right though. the IE definitely has lower housing prices compared to Seattle, but that's apples and oranges. Comparing it to Bainbridge or somewhere further out would be more fair.
I'd take your weather right now in a heartbeat, but fuck desert summers. I'll be a snowbird in my twilight years. -

How many on here would this apply too?
"Specifically, the GOP tax plan proposes cutting the cap on mortgage interest deductions on newly purchased homes. Currently, a married couple can deduct interest on mortgages of up to $1,000,000; the GOP plan would cut that to $500,000. Similarly, deductions of state and local property tax would be capped at $10,000." -

Not giving a tax break is not a tax -

When the Feds are taxing dollars that you've paid to the state, county or municipality, that is taxing a tax.RaceBannon said:

This is new? You would still get to deduct up to 10 grand if you lived in California and could make that much. Which you can'tsalemcoog said:

One must admit and acknowledge the brilliance of fucking all the most expensive, heavily taxed locales in the US, mostly run by tax & spend liberal democrats, by limiting the state & local deduction to 10k. Being that all tax credits and deductions are subsidies, the feds have said "we aren't giving you subsidized tax breaks for your high local taxes anymore. Now, you have to justify them in the face of the people who pay them and can't write them off." I see some local tax revolts, right quick. Maybe starting in Seattle.
At the end of the day, most folks worry more about money than Transgender Intersectionalism and which bathroom chicks with dicks use. These limited write-offs will expose that fact. -
