Im deeply sorry for the Maine home owners who are not able to pay the ongoing increases in the property taxes here in Central Maine. Many towns/cities have experienced huge property tax increases. Bottom line of why......IMO...... is because the spending continues, adding more services, more personnel, verses cutting back on services to protect HOME OWNERSHIP.....instead it really reaching in to someone else's pocket, taking their hard earned money or social security check to keep GROWING government, funding more programs, more regulations, more social events, more website features, more building codes! More rules means needing to hire more personnel to ENFORCE those codes. Can we take a PAUSE on programs, spending, hiring government ee's, raises, pension plans? STOP destroying the peaceful sanctuary of home ownership......the stability home ownership provides is critical for quality of life. STOP the spending. If you made it this far in my "rant" -- please KNOW if you are trying to find ALL options to be able to STAY IN YOUR HOME, then call me. Im not looking for a LISTING.....I'm looking to do what licensed real estate agents are also sworn to do.....to "protect home ownership rights". Go to your TOWN or CITY budget meetings, town council meetings, speak nicely but loud ....not about demanding more programs or more services but about cutting back the spending, for municipal government to take a PAUSE.....let us all CATCH A BREATH. Please reach out if you want to talk with me about ways to STAY in YOUR HOME.
