Yup but my dad owns the property and you’re only allowed to have *one* property reassessed and though they can easily afford their taxes, they chose to reassess their own house.
Game over.
“Yup but my dad owns the property...”
Have him sell you the property for market value (or less). If it’s owned free and clear, you can have him carry the loan. Gives you a mortgage interest deduction and him a steady source of income. A paralegal and/or title company can arrange all the paper work.
Easy Peasy.
