Brookhaven Property Taxes updated for 2021 (loan, how much, house)

[hereonli]

I've been keeping a keen eye on the tax portal
https://apps.brookhavenny.gov/Online...xes/Tax-Portal
I noticed that the taxes have been updated for the 2021 year.

The house I'm in contract for only increased $101 keeping it just barely below the 6k mark for taxes.
That's just a 1.7% increase, so I'm pretty stoked right now.

So how much higher did your taxes go?

Mine went up there usual $600. Let's think about that, my taxes have gone up $6000 the last 10 yrs. That's nuts.

It’s sad when anyone cheers for “only” a 1.7% increase. I remember years of 4%, 5% and 6% increases before 2011.

In my current home and previous home I’ve had years where taxes went down - not due to grieving, but due to actually only taxing what’s needed.

I know. Odd concept isn’t it.

I've heard people call Brookhaven the town of Crookhaven, is these things the so called reason why?

My taxes dropped from 9k to 8300 this year, and I got a check in mail from loan company. No, I did not grieve. Town reassessed.
