Its Begun... Nashville Dem Mayor Proposes 32% Property Tax Increase Amid Pandemic

Don't they understand that everyone is hurting right now...

The stock market is down... Stores are closed, Companies are closed, people are struggling to find money just to pay their own bills.

You can bet the amount of double and triple overtime pay for government employees is just astounding at this point. They are spending money they don't have on things they don't need and probably 90% of their offices are closed so you can't even get help from them when you need it.

It is just outrageous ... Half a Billion Dollars and Nashville is not a huge city.

It is going to happen everywhere....

They need to cut their budgets drastically before they come to the people for a fricken 32% increase

___________________________________________________

Nashville Mayor Cooper today filed the city’s recommended operating budget for fiscal year 2021 with the Metro Council.

The Democratic Mayor wants to hike the city’s property tax by 32% to recover.

Metro Finance estimates that the city will experience a $470 million revenue decline over a 16-month time frame due to the impact of COVID-19 and the March tornado. The decline in revenue during Q4 of fiscal year 2020 required Metro to cut expenditures and spend down remaining fund balances, leaving Metro with only $12 million of fund balances at the end of FY20.

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear...
