*Let's leave politics aside*, but I encourage everyone to prepay their 2017-2018 second half school taxes this month. Starting January 1st your property tax deduction is limited to $10,000 with the new tax bill that will pass in the US Congress. If you pay your taxes this year, you can deduct these on your 2017 tax return. Note: Taxes are deductible when paid, not due.

My taxes are 5 grand a year so I’m good.
The interest deduction thing might screw me though.

I'm patiently awaiting oyster bay to send out the1st half general tax bill. If I don't get it by dec 26 I'll be at town hall paying my second half school taxes. I'm one of the few that has a mortgage but pays my taxes on my own not through escrow.

$10,122 up there and place with larger property and same sq ft here is $2,110. It went up $2.38 this year here. Ridiculous!

This is NOT correct. The $10,000 encompasses all state and local taxes, not just property taxes. Your state income tax is also a component so if you pay $9,000 in property tax and $6,000 in income tax you will now have $5,000 that is no longer deductible...if the legislation passes and is signed into law.

What's the limit on that? Time to sell?

It will become law.

And yes - you are correct. So pay down your property taxes if possible this year.

For your OB tax bill you'll probably be out of luck.

Pay your school taxes NOW.
