Lol you must be confusing me with another poster. All I said he hasn't done anything besides raise taxes and no one can counter it.

Good luck buying and selling a home with transfer and recordation taxes raised during ball's administration.

You’re giving half assed information to rile people up. Property taxes have not gone up and the tax that has gone up is a minor increase.

As for recordation taxes, once again you’re avoiding numbers because the increases are minimal. The rate went from 1% to 1.25%. One quarter of a percent. $1,250 on a $500,000 home or $2,500 on a million dollar home. I’m not exactly shedding many tears for a person selling a million dollar home netting $2,500 less. Even more so considering how much property values have gone up in recent years. But then again some people are just greedy jerks that decry any tax increase, demand the county cut the budget, but complain about any decrease to the services that they like the best.

25% increase is not significant?

What has Ball done again? Not saying Kittleman is any less useless than him, I just want to hear someone give an example?

Now you’re just trolling. You know full well that stating the increase as a percentage and ignoring absolute figures is highly misleading.

The transfer tax in itself is egregious.
