I got my new property tax bill recently. I want to thank the city of Bangor for increasing my taxes by $400. They already increased $200 last year!
Between high taxes, doubling oil prices, electricity and other utilities, I don’t think anybody is going to be able to afford to keep their home. Even if someone sells their home, they still need a place to live and move into. Then, they’ll be starting the same all over again.
Seems like a no-win situation all around.
