Has anyone else's taxes been raised? We had a huge increase..

We have been working to get our home loan payment reduced and paid off our escrow, expecting a lower payment this month. BUT it was not lower, it was actually higher than before and we were told that taxes had been raised. It was a pretty big increase!

Ours has steadily increased, even though the value of our home has flatlined. Not sure how that works.

Amazing though, that our state is so far in the whole, that teachers are being laid off, sports programs in the middle schools disbanded, bus routes altered when all these things are subsidized by our property taxes.

With the value of homes dropping around the country so much, have you thought of having the home reappraised ?
