Issue Position: Lower Property Taxes

Issue Position

Cur­rently, New Hamp­shire is one of 37 states to charge prop­erty taxes at both the state and local level. In 2009, the U.S. Cen­sus reported the state raised about $3.2 bil­lion in total state and local prop­erty taxes, which ranked 42nd among the 50 states. But when you spread that among all New Hamp­shire res­i­dents, it works out to $2,424 per per­son. I hope by low­er­ing prop­erty taxes that we can get rent low­ered for peo­ple of New Hamp­shire. Rent is high because prop­erty taxes are too high. This is some­thing I want to take my time with and fig­ure out because if we fig­ure this out it will save a lot of money for peo­ple. Taxes are tricky and I will do my best for the peo­ple of NH.
