Mine went down 4.5%, which is good for me since I'm here for the long haul.

Mine went up 8.2%. Bought house new in October 2008 so this is now the highest it has ever been.

Meanwhile, the county supervisors agreed on a rate of $1.215 per $100 assessed value for 2012, and that's up from $1.204 for this year.
Plus the claim the average tax increase will only be $110. That definitely must be an average, as if they stick with that tax rate increase, plus the fact my assessment went up 8.2%, I'm going to see several times more than that for a tax increase!

Down 1.2%. I thought the BRAC re-alignment was going to help us out in Eastern PWC??

How the heck did my home value go down but my escrow payment go up about $100 a month? Even with the higher tax rate, my escrow payment should have gone down about $15 a month.

How can the bank change the escrow when the tax rate hasn't been officially been passed yet?

That's what I asked them! Supposedly they are basing it off last year's amount that PWC billed for... which seemed to be higher than the total tax I calculated for the year (2011). Something is off. I'll have to sit down and figure this mess out later.

PWC just passed the new tax rate of $1.209 per $100. So yes it's higher than last years $1.204, but lower than the advertised rate of $1.215.

Prince William passes increased tax rate | InsideNova (http://www2.insidenova.com/news/2012/apr/24/prince-william-passes-increased-tax-rate-ar-1866339/ - broken link)

My assessment went down so if my calculations are correct my taxes should go down as well. In case you don't know how to calculate your taxes, this should help: http://www.pwcgov.org/government/dep...state-Tax.aspx

It doesn't include some special assessments, but should give you a general idea.
