Big Increase in Property Taxes? NH (New Ipswich, Greenville: date, towns, difference)

[NewNHguy]

I'm in madison, my Taxes are $2200. I own an acre of land, and there's a 1900 Sq. Ft. home on the property. From my viewpoint, that is LOW, and easily payable....here's why...

Our NJ home, was on a 50[ft]X 150[ft] piece of property,[postage stamp] and I paid $14,590 in taxes. ...plus a mortgage, and college tuition for my daughter.... Can you say going to the poor house?

so if my taxes are to stay in the $2000-3000 region, I'll happily:

Take my own Recyclables and trash to the dump.
Enjoy my well water.
Have my septic pumped as needed
Enjoy my quiet unpaved road.
Remove my own leaves, enjoy the spicy aromas.
And sit back on the deck, in every season, and watch the world go by.

That doesen't sound to hard to take!

An easy pill to swallow Ken, and the NH living beats NJ life to death.

I really like this New Hampshire tax map, but it's not up to date for 2009 just yet. Many towns in NH have not yet set their tax rates, but even those towns that HAVE set their rates are not shows updated here. I would recommend checking back in the next couple of weeks for more accurate numbers. The "quick and easy" is that it's color coded:
green= $15 per thousand or under
yellow=$15.01 to 19.99 per thousand
red =$20.00 or over per thousand

my property VALUE went down to about 2004 levels...but my total annual bill rose by $400 here in the lakes region. Traditionally, they go up every year no matter what. The biggest increase in MY bill was for the school portion. That part rose from $5per thousand to $8per thousand was the largest increase. All other portions of the bill rose just a few cents.

Tax rate in Hollis is down $0.21 per thousand. While some federal money contributed to the drop (a $250k education grant); the school operating expenses were still down almost $450k over and above that. Total valuations in Hollis are up a little under .1%...so even with the re-assessment the total tax burden on residents is down (about $63 lower tax bill this year on a $300k home then last year).

Brookline's tax rate fell $1 per thousand...not sure what their valuations were.
