[quote="anon-052s"][quote="anon-011q"]Nice. :-) Cranbury homes were the best buy before the re-assessment of home value. I bought one in 2002 that had about $8,000 property tax; now, it's about $14,000! I wish my salary could increase like that. :roll:[/quote] So your taxes went up an average of about 4% per year? Any improvements to your property during that time?[/quote]
