Property Tax Week - Introduction
Ben Schmidt of www.benschmidt.tv a Fredericton NB and Oromocto NB Real Estate Agent video blogs about the upcoming property tax week
So we have three major concerns as New Brunswick homeowners regarding property taxes.
1 - The way that our homes are being assessed. Is it clear and does it follow fair market value?
2 - Low/Fixed income families such as seniors are being driven out of their homes because of rising assessments and rates
3 - Double tax on non-owner occupied properties. We're the only province in Canada that has this tax.
We have four guest speakers appearing on the show this week
1 - Jason Stephen on the New Brunswick Real Estate Association
2 - Brian MacDonald of the Progressive Conservative Party
3 - Jason Purdy of the New Democratic Party
4 - Greg Byrne, Finance Minister of New Brunswick, of the Liberal Party
All parties will address the concerns of property tax
