Wait til you purchase a home and have to pay property tax.. they increase the taxes and there’s almost nothing you can do about it especially when they claim it’s due to inflation. So they get a raise just pushing buttons on their work computers because of inflation, off of our backs, while we suffer with no income increases? Unable to keep up with inflation. It’s oppression. Essentially it can cause a family to lose their home if they can’t keep up with the raising cost of property taxes especially when everything else is increasing in our livelihoods.

It'll make you even madder when you go to protest the increases on your property taxes. The local government is not supposed to appraise your house, but they all do anyways and tax you on "$400000 for a 1500 sqft market rate"

Don't I know it! My yearly escrow went up something like $1,000 the last two years in a row. IN A ROW. Grocery bill (3 kids no less) has gone up a few hundred a month as well these last few years, not even taking into account how much larger these kids stomachs seem to be growing : ) I'm blessed to have my home, and my kids, and I pray JProof actually manages to grow in such a way that it helps provide option in the future years. I'll be putting money into it like a bank account as at least it is run by someone whose goals align with my own.
