St. Joseph County recently mailed property tax bills for the “2008 pay 2009” tax year. Payments are due December 11, 2009. I’ve heard reports of odd assessments and\u00a0straightforward\u00a0errors showing that the system needs further refinement. But the online search allows only 30 queries per IP address, which is not enough for any real study to see what is happening with\u00a0assessed\u00a0values and total charges.<\/p>\n

I’ll dig deeper in the coming weeks, but wanted to post the link where you can view tax bills today. It shows assessment, exemptions,\u00a0delinquencies\u00a0and total charges. For a 2.95% surcharge you can also pay your bill by credit card through the site .<\/p>\n

My assessment went from $140,200 to $159,800 – which is twice the $80,000 I paid for my home six months ago. My tax bill rose from $1,607.47 to $2,612.40. \u00a0That puts my effective tax rate at 1.45%, just shy of the 1.5% cap for owner occupied homes this year. In the coming weeks, I’ll detail the property tax appeals process as I go through it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
