hey, I heard yesterday, from a friend not the officials, that the tax office over here has been sending appraisers out, unannounced, when a permit is pulled.
Before it is finaled or the work even begun.
Did she get misinformation or is that true?
a) I dislike having officials or anyone show up at my doorstep and demand to see my premises ... it feels like an invasion of privacy
b) they can't tax you on the improvements until after they're finaled, can they? That would be so wrong.
Would appreciate hearing from anyone about their experiences.
My son who paints on the west side said they came to his job site this week -- but that is new construction and in the finish stages. And west side and east side can differ in approach, no?
