Mecklenburg County has finished the 2019 Real Estate Property Evaluation and property taxes will be going up! Expect your mortgage provider to adjust your monthly payment if tax escrow is included in your payment. The median increase of the county assessment is 43% (some will see an as much as 300% increase! Yikes!) If you would like to contest the evaluation; as mistakes are often made by appraisers, here is the link to contact the county.

Good Luck and as always call me with all your Real Estate needs or questions!

A PRIMER FOR INCOME TAX FILING TIME.
The new tax law is still a wild card
At the time of last year's forecast, the GOP's proposed revision of the tax code was still being batted around Congress. While there was talk that it might discourage people from buying a home, no one really knew how it might affect the real-estate market.

This year ... well, we still don't really know. That's because most taxpayers won't be filing taxes under the new law until April 2019. And while some people might have a savvy tax adviser giving them a better idea of what's in store, for many, the reality check will come in the form of a bigger tax bill—or a bigger refund.

Renters are likely to have lower tax bills, but might not be tempted to buy while affordability remains a challenge, and with the new, increased standard deduction reducing the appeal of the homeowner's mortgage-interest deduction.

"I think the new tax plan will affect mostly homeowners and home buyers in the upper parts of the distribution," says Andrew Hanson, associate professor of economics at Marquette University in Milwaukee, WI. "Those who either own or are buying higher-priced homes are going to pay a lot more."

Sellers of those pricier homes will also take a hit, as buyers anticipating bigger tax bills won't be as willing to pony up for a high list price.

The biggest change resulting from the new tax law, Hanson predicts, will be in mortgages, since people will be less inclined to take out large mortgages.

"If anyone is going to be upset about the tax plan, it'll be mortgage bankers," he says.
