The whole ‘fat tax’ thing is a red herring to obscure the elimination of the ‘Star Program’, which will literally double the property taxes of millions of middle class New York property owners.
Most people don’t even know it’s in there. If it gets mentioned, it’s buried in the middle of an article on the stupid ‘fat tax’.
There are exceptions, but for example, one of the large old houses in crime-ridden Schenectady will run you about $12-14k in property tax. The star program will bring it down to about $7-8k. When you look at the taxes in the MLS, it’s the AFTER Star number that they use. Many property owners are in for a HUGE surprise.
I’ll bet many won’t even realize until they get the tax bill and wonder why it’s so high. People will literally be put out of their homes, forced to move. Many people in Upstate NY have property tax bills as it stands that are about the same as their mortgage.
