Sorry to derail this but...
I hear what you're saying but that's something that can change year by year within a town and how they decide to tax you. When we moved here seven years ago our tax assessment was below market value. When the market inflated, our tax assessment was the same as the market value. I hate to think how this is going to be figured next year!
