Property taxes are not very popular. People might dislike other taxes just as much, but feel powerless to change them. If the assessed value of the property does not rise or, in fact, declines, then this should be followed by decreases in tax rates. This, however, is not welcomed by property owners, either. Why?

What will be an ideal response?


Although tax rates may be lower, this decrease corresponds to a decreasing value of the
property, which will result in capital losses. The ideal situation would be for the assessed value
of the property to increase with rates staying the same or decreasing.
