Our hit was 60% ... from under 5k to over 8k ... needless to say we filed our protest this afternoon. The county offices are going to be swamped.

Wonder how all the FOMO Fools are feeling now, knowing they paid far more than the house is worth just to 'be in Montana', and now they get the cherry on top with a huge tax increase ...

Exhibit A:

Met a guy a few weeks back who had a cushy Marketing job with Microsoft ... 17yr employee. They bailed on Redmond WA during the plandemic and moved to Kalispell in '21. Bought (2) houses, have 6 cars, and a kid going to Belmont next year. He got laid off a couple months ago ... probably had a 250k+ salary. Oops.

Said he was going with Vacasa to manage their 2nd house in Lakeside ... Vacasa takes 30%. Oops.

You can't fix stupid.
Thats a huge tax increase. MT does have a sizeable income tax at top tier, adds up to a pretty high total tax load.

The mills were adjusted down so our hit was "only" 30% ... still a huge increase.

I suppose the 2 guys playing 'hide the salami' recently in a Senate hearing room were an example of what the government has been doing to citizens for decades ...
