“up to $3,500 for residential property owners and $4,000 for renters.” Incentivizing renting over owning?
Providing additional relief to renters, who tend to have fewer other tax breaks available to them.
I understand that rising house prices are causing bigger property tax bills, but why is the state messing with local property taxes? The tax cap as starved Indiana cites for years. Rising prices is going to hit city budgets too. Maybe this is just another “poop on the libs” move to make sure those Democratic strong holds (that just happen to drive most of of Indiana’s GDP) fail?
I still wish that the state took the tax money it had already collected and spent it on badly needed infrastructure or subsidizing clean energy. Give a man $250 and he can buy a new TV, create more jobs and a man can create a more prosperous life.
Inflation raises the amount of sales taxes collected and those taxes go to both the cities and the state. Home values have recently risen faster than inflation so home owners should not be penalized with taxes rising more than the rate of inflation.
Homeowners are not being “penalized” with higher taxes. They are being “rewarded” with increased valuations of their real property – historically the greatest path to wealth creation. Seems some homeowners want the increase in their net wealth but not the slightly higher taxes that come with it.
Rep. Thompson probably fails to realize the negative impact his tax reduction legislation has on local governments and schools because, as a resident of a small town of just several hundred people, he just doesn’t see the costs that larger communities and cities have to deal with.
If local governments want to reduce tax for their residents, let them do. That state need not meddle in this issue.
