Property taxes represent the one of the largest annual expense incurred in the ownership of real estate. Consumer Reports has published that property tax records show an error rate of 40% exists in estimating property taxes. With property values falling, you may be expecting a decrease in your property tax bill. This is not likely. According to the National Tax Payers Union, as much as 60% of all homeowners are over-assessed and not in line with their home market value.
