yes I saw them, practically identical. Both very buildable. I am going by the MLS listing.
The lower priced one had a recent price reduction and is being sold by a realtor. That's why it has a lower MLs number. ( it was listed a while ago at a higher price.) The price reduction is effective at the same time the higher property was listed. My interest is not so much the asking price, although that is interesting, but what the taxes and assessments are. And you are quite right. They may be more equal at the assessors office, but somehow, I doubt it.
I really doubt that all the vacant lots in HPP are taxed equally and I really doubt that any assessor is taking into account buildability into their assessments. For the record, the lot we just bought was assessed at 24,000.
