Increase of property Tax

Some landlords gave up. Charles Adams of Citrus Park owned two rental homes and sold both of them as tax bills became too much. He sold a 1,300-square-foot rental home in Ballast Point at a time when neighbors were building enormous new homes, driving up his property tax bill at a $1,000-a-year clip. He waited until after the death of a longtime tenant to sell an 800-square-foot home in Palm River last year.

Florida's Real Estate Insurance

The AP-AOL Real Estate poll of 2,001 adults, including 289 recent homebuyers and 401 likely future homebuyers, was conducted by telephone Sept. 19-26 by Ipsos. The poll had a margin of error of plus or minus 2 percentage points for all adults, 6 percentage points for recent homebuyers and 5 percentage points for likely future homebuyers.
$3.00 per share for 2006 will beat the record earnings of $1.95 per share recorded in calendar year 2005 by over 50%. I am guiding now for several reasons. We have not experienced the same weather conditions as the prior two years and with developing El Nino conditions in the central and eastern Pacific, in which hurricane activity during such conditions is rare, reinsurance costs going forward should migrate lower next year. During this same time frame, our increased rates will be taking hold causing revenues and profitability to accelerate.

Property Taxes

Property taxes on my home except for the fact that in El Paso (really in all of Texas for that matter) the return I get in the form of city, county and state services is pathetic. After living in California and knowing people in places like Maryland and Pennsylvania, I know that tax rates are also very high elsewhere. However the quality and spectrum of services that are offered by the cities and counties are on a level that virtually relegates El Paso services to a level offered by third-world countries.
