The new Meredith assessment is definately from the Dept. of Hard-To-Believe. My two-bedroom kozy-kottage went from a $401k to an 801k in one year. I thought that was only possible in the stock market with a stock like rev and not in residential waterfront. Nobody is going to spend that type of money on a tiny 1/4 acre lot with 60' wf and a semi-winterized, 50 year old mongrol cottage with no foundation, no matter how nice the view, duh?

I figure my prop tax will go from $6500. up to 8000., or 1% of the assessment which seems to be the general New Hampshire rule of thumb, one percent.

I also figure I'll join the growing number of pickup trucks out there which sport the bumper sticker, "Ax the View Tax!." See you at the Wal-Mart!
