are buying a house. put the offer in last night, and the folks accepted it. nice place in a great town (same one i'm living in now). my lady wanted to be in a "village", so we're in the village of fairport. apparently it was ranked as one of the top 100 places to live in the USA. i grew up in the town just south (about 3 minutes away).
anyway, let me ask you hillbillies sumfin. what are your taxes out there... in sooner country??? or wherever you might be....
our taxes are actually on the lower end for the town we'll be in. in rochester, NY suburbia, i would say the average is somewhere around $5800/yr. ours are going to be about $4700 after the STAR discount (whatever the heck that is).
nice thing is, we won't have to do any work to it (in case we need to re-locate in a couple years). the kitchen needs to change colors, but that's easy. great yard for the dog, hot tub included (outside on the patio). they also have a trampoline... i haven't inquired to its status (if it will stay or not). they have kids, so it might go away. dang!!! i really could've hurt myself on that thing!!!
