Boat property tax assessment reduced!

[Mikeski]

I just finished a phone call with my county tax accessor. They had the value of my boat in excess of what I paid for the boat last year. After a short conversations they lowered my taxes over $100. If you bought a new boat last year and you pay property tax on it you might want to see how they have valued the boat, you might be paying too much. It's worth a phone call.

Good advice. Also, your bill should be reduced every year as the boat value decreases.

I just mailed off my check.

Shooot ! I just paid mine about a month ago, but it wasnt in excess at all. I'll call them and give it a shot maybe I might have some money coming my way.

Thanks for the tip !

My 90 Sport is finally down to $54. Cali stops the tax when the blue book drops below $3500 I think!

you guy pay property taxes every year on your boat? i thought canada was bad, but that is crazy. we pay taxes when we buy em, and thats it.

You have VAT and GTS we have unsecured property tax!

Wow..... property tax on a boat..... unreal. We only pay sales tax on dealer boats here. Private party used, you only pay on the trailer. I think our registration is like $30 every two years for the sticker.

No sales tax or "unsecured property" tax here in Oregon. Just the licensing fee. We do have a 9% state income tax on every dollar we make... Yellow_Flash_Colorz:
