is that the property taxes in Texas are donations.

The way the original property taxes were set up specified that in order for

If you read it very carefully, the purpose of the property tax is to tax the property of corporations.

But here in Texas, they have a very big potential problem with the way they do property taxes.

Eddie, in the state of Texas, if you're over the age of 65, you don't have to pay property taxes?

It's just like when they try to hit me with property taxes on my business.

and the property taxes, okay?

living soul own it outright and they have no and the government has no authority to impose property taxes on you but you would still have to go through a process of removing the property from the tax roll all right so if your straw man purchases the property however which is the case of 99.9% of the time then there's nothing that you can do about it you can't say that well I own the property they can't tax it

okay well if you exchange your labor for it then you would really have bought it in your natural man capacity because labor is a commodity I would suggest Doug concerning about the property taxes and you're saying you don't want to register it and the straw man and all that kind of thing

old law firms that come after people for their property taxes and their foreclosures and

up a local attorney's firm that sends out the property tax bills here in Hays County.

Texas that has this law firm that's sending you property tax bills and everything else

firms that are doing the property taxes.

We have a gubernatorial candidate that says she wants to ban all property taxes in Texas

This is the Texas tax code under property tax, subtitle C, chapter 11, sub-chapter B, exemptions

In 11.0043, and then we have the one in Property Tax Code under Subchapter B, Special Appraisal Provisions

Now remember, this is under a franchise tax, this has nothing to do with your property tax

Just like your last lady, she's mentioned property tax and school tax

Okay, well how do you not pay your property tax?

Well, let's hope Ms. Medina, the gubernatorial candidate, knows more than she's letting on about how property taxes actually work

I was chasing some rabbit trails on this property tax you were talking about earlier, Eddie.

the property taxes since I bought my house.

here we are at the beginning of November, and property taxes are due the end of January, and it ain't looking good.

Okay, a lot of people are really, really up in arms about the property tax situation here in Travis County.

about how expensive the property taxes are, and our bill is like 30% more than it was last year, so a lot of good it did.

Houston. She's 80-some-odd years old. They had raised her property taxes on her house

property taxes are $30 a year anyway.

double or triple the property taxes, and so what Randy and I are determining

I don't think that the age 65ers should be having to pay property taxes,

but then again, I don't think any of us should be paying property taxes.

Last night, the main topic was property taxes, and that's where the whole drift was coming from.

I want to say this. Just getting your land patent will not get you out of property taxes.

Property taxes is a fraud or fraudulent contract because of a lot of side issues that Randy and Eddie, they're probably more up on than I am.

Okay, high on the priority list right now is property tax issues, especially here in

session to try to iron out this property tax issue.

get our property taxes reduced because they were already way out of hand.

And in the meantime, Eddie Craig has research that he's done regarding property taxes in

the laws affecting property taxes that were in effect when the land patent was granted

And it hasn't helped me on my property taxes whatsoever

And all property taxes that have been paid, you know, through the payment of the mortgage on the property,

Property taxes are, what, 30, 40 bucks a year or something on hundreds of acres.

And there are rural areas where the property taxes are very high.

some of my family members, very rural area, and their property taxes are absolutely outrageous.

If, you know, continue to pay your property taxes, people.

I mean, the way I look at property taxes, do you tax a badger for his badger hole?

their fictions, and that's the only thing that can be taxed as far as property tax and

to avoid the scenario in which they form the basis for all this property taxes by taking

only $10. Well, if you record that, that goes on the books in the property tax. Business

that, you know, were paying a dollar, dollar and a quarter a year in property tax once

So let's take a look at the property taxes as they apply to land

Now we're going to deal with the property taxes to address that issue for just a moment

We're dealing with the property tax

So the first thing that you have to do to resolve the issues of property taxes, of debts,

The three ways people get bound into property taxes are, one, they register to vote and

the issue of changing the mill rate levy that sets the base for property taxes is elemental

When you make that agreement, you agree to the property tax terms and conditions and

Those are the three ways property taxes apply and it's always contractual.

If you want to enter into a contract for a mortgage or property tax or anything else

If you contract for a property tax or for a mortgage, you're subject to the terms and

And everybody knows how to get rid of property taxes.

Everybody knows how to get rid of property taxes.

That's how you get rid of property taxes.

Now real property can be taxed as property tax on the tax roll.

When it comes down to an issue that you reference to the property taxes, which is a wise thing

to have in it, it says that the seller will pay the property taxes that they agreed to

I don't agree to pay the property taxes.

So if I sell the property and get rid of the property taxes, cause I know how to do that

the trust is stuck in paying the property taxes.

property taxes, but usually, once you get to the point where you're in arrears and they're

But predominantly, when you're dealing with preserving a property from property taxes

and or eliminating property taxes, almost anything that you can do is best done when

back a few owners back and you find a property tax sale, well then what do you know about

And I'm wondering how I entered into a perpetual contract for property taxes without any disclosure

the property taxes up until the time of the sale and you'll pay the property taxes from

Now, the allegation that property taxes are not disclosed is a foolhardy allegation that

property tax issue and dealing with the assignments, so please continue, Eric.

Let's go into property taxes, and we'll take a look at that issue and see how esoteric

That's going to be exemplified as we take this issue of property taxes, and we'll jump

Okay, so in the property taxes, again, where the constitutions don't give any rights or

you have to pay a property tax on property that you own?

to own your car or that you have to pay property taxes simply because you own property?

Now, when we deal with a property tax, those things being true, how can they possibly create

a property tax?

You go to the statute itself about property taxes.

You follow it back to the first property taxes that were ever put in place.

property taxes and such.

Most of what we've talked about today is there and if we don't get to the property tax issue

Again, property taxes, mortgages, all of those kinds of things, they're contracts dealing

property taken off of the tax roll for the property taxes?

Again, property taxes come from private contract.

Same thing happens with property taxes.

The person contracting for the property tax is the taxpayer, not the man.

Leinberger is a big law firm here and everywhere else that collects money for the IRS and property taxes and everything else.

all paid in full debt-free, all I have to do is miss the property taxes, and the county

The only other thing I'd say is the gentleman, Jeff, in Michigan, about his property tax

As he's looking at the statutes pertaining to property tax, look for anything that can be construed to apply to your shelter from the elements

Same thing, property taxes

Okay, so I went into court as a defendant, okay, and regarding the property taxes

I've got two commercial buildings, one of them I live in, I'm three years behind in property taxes

The state of Michigan is going to repossess me for not paying 2006 property taxes, but I don't pay them

And he said that getting your land patent will not help you get out of property taxes

And their statute that they're using for their ad valorem property taxes does not apply

Okay, we are back. We're speaking with Jeff in Michigan about property tax issues

Eddie and I have discovered that the property tax code only applies to commercial real estate

Oh, I was just talking about the things he was dealing with up there on the property taxes

under General Property Tax Act, Public Act 206 of 1893

How well do you know the property tax statutes?

Exactly, you need to become diligent in figuring out everything there is to know about the property tax

What does the state constitution allow or not allow regarding property taxes?

and property tax offices and stuff like that

That's why you need to read the property tax code

First thing is the Texas Constitution forbids the state to charge and collect ad valorem property taxes, which is why the county is doing it, okay?

I'm going to be sued for property tax sometime in the future

I've got some issues with property tax that might interest you

Started in, when did it start? In 06, I got a letter saying I got to pay my property taxes by December 19th

For not paying property tax

And that office collects the property taxes too so that would be quite a lot of money

get it done right to not have to pay property taxes no matter what method you use.

which people in Travis County know well familiar with, is the day of property taxes being due.

because I have some very fundamental basic principle ideological issues with property taxes.

what would be proper services to put on a property tax bill?

Why aren't those services part of the property tax bill?

I got to say I am really mad about the property taxes because I am not in agreement anymore

And Eddie, at one point you were saying that you had seen something in the property tax code

in this state that you're not subject to the property tax code anyway.

Okay, I am on a tirade about property taxes right now

whether it be property taxes or anything else, then I say fine.

foreclosure suit brought for property taxes, ad valorem taxes.

What I've seen in the history of the way the property tax in Texas works,

The ad valorem property taxes in Texas only came about when there was a fiscal bill

Yeah, we know we talked about property taxes and so on and so forth.

this outrageous property tax situation in Texas

Is this on a property tax issue?

But I personally, I have never played one game with my own personal property taxes ever

Because the amount of time, like my property tax is about $3,000 a year

Not outside of my property tax, but in a hundred other ways

It'll save me more money to then make that payment on my property tax

And as far as just the whole property tax issue thing is concerned

That's what I was trying to tell people early on about the property taxes.

where two priests spent $8.6 million on trips to Las Vegas, dental work, property taxes, and other expenses over four decades.

that's his livelihood. He hadn't been paying property taxes on these oil royalties. So

barter again, the same law firm with intent to sue for the property taxes and they're

it was you, Deborah. You mentioned something about the rebalancing on your property taxes,

the overall property value. None of these property appraisals and property tax protest

it drives up the property taxes within a matter of years. It's a big scam. It's a big racket

Yeah, the first part. I'm in the rural area and I looked at my property tax statement

then go to the unbuilt lot person and jack them up on the property tax rate. Maybe that's

in my property tax bill and I went in with a box of these one dollar coins and they refused

So I went and I tried to pay my property tax with the presidential $1 coins.

near and dear to those in Texas, and that is Texas property taxes.

that's been filed in relation to property taxes here in Texas, and it does a very good

property taxes in violation of the Texas Constitution.

Everyone knows back in 2005, the Texas Supreme Court ruled that property taxes for the state

in this form of ad valorem property taxes were unconstitutional in the state of Texas,

But if you've got property tax issues going on in Texas right now, please feel free to

said about property taxes is this, they can only tax private property if the owner renders

source of property taxes point of view, overtime, but they're not being sued to pay out compensatory

to matter if this suit rules that in any way the property taxes are invalid. Maybe these

Here's a point that I think was missed in item 23 of the property tax memorandum.

This is part of it, the property taxes.

We have been discussing property taxes,

A couple of things, number one for Eddie on that lawsuit on the property tax,

and we are hot and heavy on the property tax issue,

and this project came up tonight, property taxes, farm taxes, school taxes,

I want to go back to the property tax issue. I might even suggest that maybe you can get

to the property taxation of non-federal property once and for all. I want to do it. I want

I says, fluoride is going to build up into the environment and it's going to create an environmental hazard and lower property taxes

Debra, you said on break that you have to pay your property tax in federal reserve,

So I can't pay a partial payment against my property tax, I have to pay it in full.

But mathematically, there is no way we can pay all the property tax, there's not enough

So if I had to pay property tax, yeah, okay, I'll play ball, I'll take a coin that I've

I caught a couple months ago about a property tax issue.

I attempted to pay my property tax with dollar coins and they rejected that.

Why are you looking at federal code for property taxes?

if you're in property taxes you're in an area that's within the authority of

Then they brought it back up last month to make me pay or put it on my property taxes.

And it seems like I recall hearing in the past that when you're dealing with property taxes

Because I know when you go down and deal with these people with your property tax

But if you get your only real property can be taxed with property taxes, at least here in Texas

But in their county, their property taxes are only like 30 bucks a year, so it's like no big deal

And she said most of the money that is collected by property taxes goes to pay outrageous salaries

Land patents will not get you out of property taxes

Having your land patent has nothing to do with property taxes

It will not get you out of property taxes

Okay, in regards to property taxes, I've heard a lot of mention recently about the mortgage fraud situation,

but I seldomly hear anyone mention property taxes.

So I'd like to know if that's generally done in a squeaky clean manner or whether there's a dark side to the whole pursuit of property tax collection.

All right, well, initially when you worded the question, you used the term real estate property taxes.

Real estate property taxes are 100% legal and valid.

And that is go ask any tax assessor in Texas what type of tax is the Texas property tax.

However, because of the way the property tax protest laws are written in the property code,

And so we contacted attorneys at the time who did cases like this pro bono and property tax advocates,

There was no judicial remedy under the property tax code.

to go to elementary school because the property tax office, the TCAD, wants to make money.

Okay, I ranted about the property taxes

But I seldomly hear anyone mention anything about real estate property taxes.

The other question is then, so what about the taxes, property taxes,

In order to not be liable to pay county property taxes,

I'm in the same city and I bought in eight years ago, I'm paying $2,000 a year in property taxes, my folks pay $400

Well, they do appraise it, but I can't find a property tax statement, a recent one

It's not going to get you off the property tax roll

Meanwhile, we're still getting gouged with property taxes and every other kind of tax and then they're going around giving our money

I've got two storefronts that last year I started my challenge to property taxes

because simply I don't have the money that they are extorting from me for property taxes

He doesn't pay property taxes.

One of his other friends, he's helped get out of property taxes

I did A for V for the property taxes,

but I'm calling about property taxes.

about my property taxes.

And then they said that if I wanted all the property taxes

but you just asked for a list of the property taxes.

Kansas has given the pipeline operator TransCanada a 10-year property tax exemption

because they passed a law increasing property taxes

system. Property tax existed before they changed the money system. So those obligations simply

that you don't know about. Or they'll fail to pay your property taxes on time.

want to do as far as property tax, as far as statutory law, as far as all that.

Okay, you may want to get in touch with some property tax advocates in the area, but the

first thing, and just do a search, there are a number of property tax advocates in Austin.

that I could help you with, but I would suggest just doing a search online for property tax

advocates in the Austin area, or fighting property taxes or something like that, and

If you intend to protest your property taxes or if you intend to protest the appraised

Our property taxes have gone up $1,000 every year of my home and that's with a homestead

Can I ask about something else like property taxes?

who really knows about the collection procedure of property taxes and the court procedures of that.

so you don't have to pay property taxes.

Did you tell them, Randy, they're paying my property tax

Yeah, they decided to pay his property taxes.

Well, I guess what he should have done is check to see whether or not that building could even be put on the property taxes or not.

Now, some people are getting out of paying property taxes.

but then his property taxes were $35 a year.

So, are you supposed to get specific property tax breaks if your property is declared a historical

Well, so what's happening on your property tax bill?

you the tax break, and it's on your property tax bill, but it's a historical site, and

show about property taxes and you put the uh counted back on property taxes is there any

of property taxes through the state constitution and the statutory revisions dealing with the

that were responsible for the property taxes such as railroads and things of that nature

a property taxes outright but the people only had to do render their property for taxation

You're talking about property taxes, correct?

And before you can fight against these property taxes,

If I could do the same thing with the tax code in relation to property taxes that I've done with the rest of this stuff,

Well, probably the best place to get started is read the property tax code.

Read the, read the Texas property tax code and that will, that will be a very good place to start.

of ad valorem property taxes.

Well, I have a little information for you on your property tax situation here in Florida.

How many people do you think are paying property taxes on their home because they want to?

It will not make your property immune from property taxes.

But the land patent expert, Mr. Madsen from Team Law says land patent will not help you one iota to get your property off of the property tax roll.

pay property taxes and adverse possession and we have had a number of people call in and question

you about, well, when I sue the lender, if I can't pay the lender, should I pay the property taxes?

And I tell them absolutely, pay the property taxes. So Doug, without giving away any trade

If you have a lien on property and don't pay the property taxes, the tax authority can come in

I was a week late on my property taxes, and they superseded me using the clause of the contract

Okay, I asked him a question about the property taxes

Well, hey, just a little background. I went down to the county tax assessor collector, Harris County, back in July and took with me a printout from the property tax code which lists taxable property and exemptions.

They were talking about people generally are not a legally required to pay property taxes.

Property taxes were only supposed to be paid by those that are using them for the generation of profit

And y'all will cover the property tax deal also?

I believe his issue is property taxes.

I have a question about property taxes.

I'm curious, justifications for property taxes, what can you do to, you know, maybe stop that kind of stuff.

And that's why I still owe them property taxes, obviously.

the new property tax.

was that the person did this and then the next day or two looked at their property tax thing

One other good report is right before the first of the year, Eddie, I'd called and talked to you briefly on what I could send to start stopping this ridiculous process of having my property tax when I felt I clearly owned it.

I would send him a 30 day cease and desist letter on the collection of the property taxes. If you cannot produce this alleged signed document that you're required by law to have within the next 30 days, then I will assume the assessment is invalid and illegal and I will not be paying these taxes.

How does a property tax work privately?

A property tax functions because there's a private agreement set up and the nature of

That's how they enforce the property tax.

The property tax code is the term, let me get this straight, the statute, the language

And property tax amounts to nothing less than rent, if I'm not mistaken.

I don't like seeing my property taxes go up every year,

If you're actually planning on living there and not paying property taxes, if that was what you were getting to. But now, if the problem is, is somebody may not want to buy a piece of property if they aren't in the know about whether or not property taxes are something they actually owe.

Wells Fargo decided that they wanted to pay the property taxes and he says,

you're not going to pay my property taxes.

So, Wells Fargo decided to go ahead and pay the property taxes.

If he's ignoring them, he's just sending the normal payment without the property taxes added to it and therefore closing it in.

Oh, okay. Wells Fargo is billing him for property taxes.

Where Wells Fargo is required to pay the property taxes?

Wells Fargo has to cover the property taxes because that's a lien that will stand in front of theirs.

So, was he paying the property taxes?

On the property taxes and they decided they were going to pay him whether he wanted it or not.

So, was he still paying the property taxes?

No, he's not paying the property taxes because he says, I did not give you permission to pay them for me.

I mean, give me a break. Subsidies to developers. She wants to get rid of that. She wants to help lower property taxes.

End these high taxes. It's wasteful. Spending in government and the fluoride and everything else. So also, there's something on your website concerning reduction of property taxes at a local level.

And what this will do is help our low income families and reduce our property taxes because we're being developed out of here. All of the gentrification that's going on in East Austin where property taxes are going out the roof.

Yeah, well, some of it is, now the part he's got on the property taxes, that one is a far

This process rakes in more money than sales tax. It rakes in almost as much money as property tax.

So guess what the income tax is? Guess what the property tax is? Guess what the amount that we pay for traffic tickets amounts to?

the state benefited is because the property tax ratio went up. Within five months, the

They're saying that they're all property taxes.

Eddie, you're more knowledgeable in property tax than me.

When Eddie first, when we first met him, he was calling into the show over a property tax issue

But I wanted your opinion on the Travis County property tax proposition number one that we all get to vote on tomorrow if we haven't already voted.

To increase the Travis County property tax to pay for the medical school and, I guess, indigent health care.

You know, I'm a homeowner and I pay property taxes and I know I've mentioned that to you all before and you can say there's a way out of that.

And the way this thing is being pitched, you know, if you don't spend your tax, your property taxes, like to me, I'm looking at it.

I mean, I could retire and I might be on a fixed income and they want to make a permanent, you know, property tax increase to pay for something that they say is going to benefit people.

They want to make this thing a permanent property tax increase.

Fine, but I am not in agreement with being forced at gunpoint that I'm going to have to pay this money out of my property taxes to help other people to provide health care for them when I can't even pay my own taxes and I can't even afford my own health care.

and they're not spending any of it where it should be spent and they want to keep raising our property taxes

Let's talk specifically about property taxes for a second.

Let's look at the sensibility of what a property tax is and what it isn't.

A property tax according to Texas history and Texas constitutional language and everything else is a voluntary tax on private property and a non voluntary tax on corporate property.

The whole purpose of the property tax was to collect revenue for budget of bills that the legislature needed funding for.

The property tax notices that come out and how now within the past year come to understand

And it doesn't matter where there's the traffic tickets, property taxes, toll roads, imminent domain.

It also forbids Advalorum property taxes.

whom a property tax is levied must have a signed written assessment by the taxing authority.

Okay. You have some information on property taxes?

But Eddie Craig has done a lot of research on property taxes. So you might call him Monday night and talk to him about it.

Yeah, but he's still the property tax guy. He would be glad to give you his information on that.

No, real quick, I have two real brief questions, one is about property tax, the first one I

like France takes this court of red light cameras, speeding tickets, property taxes, you name it, okay, and get rid of all of that crowd and focus on the stupidity that created it.

My property taxes have not lowered in the last six years.

So I started reading. And I've come to the conclusion that the property tax code, or

I was just basically listening to you tonight, but I was going to set off on property taxes.

There was something that had been mentioned to me about the fact that my property taxes

Like property tax?

That's like people paying property taxes on their own property.

I want to know why do we have to pay property tax on something we've already paid taxes

All right, so when you say property taxes on a vehicle, since you're using the roads

Is this 250 dollars talk about the issue that I'm bringing up to you about property tax?

No, it doesn't deal with property tax, but it will teach you the legal aspects that you

can use in relation to property tax.

I mean, consider what property tax is.

Property taxes apply only to corporate owned property.

We have talked about property taxes before, and there are lots of people here in Texas

that are making headway into the research and court cases regarding property taxes.

many years ago, and the county stands to make property taxes for that.

to it, because when you say they're charging you property taxes, are they charging you

property taxed. That's the way the history of Texas taxation

Hey Eddie, a couple of weeks ago there was a girl or somebody that called you about property tax

a little while back was going to have her property repossessed or property taxed and you were able to

I don't know that it was specifically related to property taxes or something else.

Well, it was property taxes.

but like I said, I'm just hunting down information about property tax because I know it's a fraud,

Alright, so while we're sitting here discussing about this, transportation, property taxes, or whatever,

Well, yeah, man, I get so tired of paying all these property taxes and everything else

if they own property and pay property taxes, and the city is listed as a beneficiary of the tax bill.

Okay, that is, if you're paying property taxes in the city, the municipality itself,

But if the municipality is listed as a beneficiary on the tax bill on your property taxes,

But even if you do pay property taxes and the city is listed, or say you have a license for something, all right?

We're looking at doing things with property tax.

We found amendments that tie the property tax to inflation.

And we're starting to wonder if we can do something like exempt property taxes for people, let's say, over 65.

Well, again, the state constitution is what controls property taxes.

Well, how would you suggest us approaching the property tax issue?

But we're making headway as far as the income tax, the property tax, the gun issue, everything

talking about personal property taxes.

You were speaking about personal property taxes before on a previous show,

Does taxes have personal property taxes?

you were discussing personal property taxes and then versus private property.

In fact, when you look at the way that the property taxes were always done,

laws of Illinois, going back from 1819 to about 1861, and I looked up the original property tax

that talks about the property tax. And it says property tax is only applied to corporate property.

Well, when I was researching the sales tax in Texas, I was reading up a lot of other things dealing with the property tax.

And property taxes specifically says that there has to be a sworn written assessment that was made from an on-site inspection.

All right, I've got Colin who had a comment regarding a previous caller on the property taxes.

and some other things about property taxes, and we had a discussion afterwards

and it is the landowners that are the ones footing this bill up front with increased property taxes,

Similar to a situation even with property tax.

The property tax is based upon the presumption that the property is used

Yeah, because you do have, you have property tax assessments, you have homeowners' assessments,

I happened to be there on a morning where they were doing some property tax hearing,

for these particular property tax hearings that they were all going to go downstairs

No, and I hope they don't want to beat me up and throw me in jail for $1,000 with the property taxes.

He is also well versed in property tax issues.

and if you have tax, property tax issues, he's a good one to talk to on that as well.

in a kangaroo court that they call Lane Court here in Massachusetts that just rules for the town all the time in property tax stuff.

That's what I'm saying. He beat these guys in 91 on a property tax

You're asking the judge to say somebody doesn't have to pay property taxes.

that had to do with some property tax hearings.

the judge instructed the individuals that were there for the property tax hearings

That tax essay, that Texas property tax essay that I sent you.

We have the second highest property taxes in the nation and I think Crook County has

the town all the time in property tax stuff.

Anyways, like I said, he beat these guys in 91 on a property tax

You're asking the judge to say somebody doesn't have to pay property taxes.

Okay. Is this income tax? Is this property tax?

because they just acquired it from another bank steps in and unknowingly pays your property tax.

And you go to pay your property tax and you find out that the tax person sends you it back.

In the case of taxing authorities for property taxes, if you challenge their right to tax

Yeah, I went and pulled a couple of tax cases here in the county for tax foreclosure on ad valorem property taxes.

And my comment is on the property tax issue.

I have the original property tax law for California and Illinois.

He just went in and changed his deed and has not paid property tax in six to seven years.

So because all they need is a starting point on the property tax and that's it.

so that when the property taxes go up it's because the recorder isn't getting her money worth

so that if you go in and you complain to your recorder that hey the property taxes are going

And secondly, on things such as property tax, it seems that they've taken two rights, first

talking about property tax, if you basically put it back on the tax assessor or the tax

of information for like tax code, property tax code, et cetera?

Now I've had a lot of people want to try to do this to get out of paying property taxes

But property taxes are a contract

If you don't pay property taxes then you don't have a right to police protection

It's generally a good idea to pay property taxes anyway

They can't raise the property taxes if it requires a vote of the people.

The lender goes and pays the property taxes, right, and then they create an escrow account.

The next thing we found out is we paid our property tax, and the check got sent back to us telling us that the bank, who hadn't even had an assignment of mortgage at that point,

eligible, if you like that word, for property taxation as far as we can find out.

regular trial court, to have your property taxed and of course it would be put on the

property taxes but I can find no evidence that this property was ever registered for

Now taxes, property tax sales are not necessarily my forte.

But my particular deal, of course, is property tax stuff.

And he hasn't paid any property taxes on it for several years now.

Yes, I wanted to ask you about property tax in general, if that can be disputed.

Danny, you had another question about property taxes.

I have some questions about the property tax.

He hasn't paid any property tax on the house for several years, and he recently received something stating that somebody bought the delinquent taxes.

outside of the property tax issue with my mother,

Do not use property tax assessment and do not list the mortgage balance unless this

Including expenses, include property taxes and homeowner's insurance and in the right

For instance go after them on the property tax crapola that they are using to steal property

My last question before I sign off, you were mentioning something about property tax

issue, and we abolished the property tax.

issue, and we abolished a property tax.

that I found so far has a property tax, has a state income tax.

always property taxes are a county issue.

And this past year, they raised her property taxes 62%.

You have a right to assess property taxes and that's pretty well what would go to the constitution.

This is property taxes. I'm trying to help my mother.

Okay, that's the, the property tax is going to be a county issue.

Property tax. Okay. Within the Arizona

What would that have to do with the property taxes?

No, I'm not talking property taxes.

I went to see an attorney and I told her, I wanted her to help me file a bankruptcy and I wanted to discharge my property taxes in my Francis Taxport Taxes.

taxes on your property taxes anymore. But the taxes accumulate. So whoever inherits the property,

for property tax and according to what I can see, I am not the person, nor the taxpayer,

At that time, there wasn't property tax.

the property taxes were totally paid up in 2011 okay um then we filed the assignment for the land

to this position well i got here because in 2007 they doubled overnight our property tax

of definitive answer as to why my property tax had gone up so then after that it was oh well you

There's tax that's owed on the property, not property tax, that's 115%.

What kind of tax if it's not property tax?

on this new adjusted payment. They have increased the property tax payments into escrow

Our property taxes are direct taxes.

Your property taxes are a different issue.

Got nothing to do with the Federal Constitution when it comes to property taxes.

Is this in any way related to a property tax issue?

She claims that she still receives tax notices, property tax notices on those properties.

the mobile home park administration is attempting or is threatening her over a real property tax issue on her mobile home

fine points on the taxes on real property property tax is considered a consumer debt yeah but if the original debtor is collecting

If that were true, property taxes could be gotten rid of in the same way, but that's not.

And a few times, let's take for instance the subject of property tax.

Let's go over something about property tax here real quick.

The Texas Constitution prior to recent amendments absolutely forbade the state to have an ad valorem property tax.

And any taxes levied by the state, property tax or otherwise, were required to be uniform.

But you will find that all taxes were required to be uniform and that ad valorem property taxes were forbidden.

they say that the legislature has the power to authorize school boards, municipalities, and counties to levy this tax on your property, the ad valorem property tax.

The Texas Supreme Court ruled 10 years ago that the method they were using to get property taxes was absolutely unconstitutional.

And everything they've done regarding property taxes is unconstitutional.

Okay, yes, I've been out of work and I've had a hardship and my property tax

and I just got a property tax notice that they're going to sell it in a sale

Okay, call us back tomorrow night, I'll do a little research on the Oklahoma property tax law

And I did not get to Eddie Craig on Oklahoma property taxes.

Did you look up the property tax code for Oklahoma?

Is there a section, okay, here I'm looking at property taxes, page 15.

Is there a section in the property tax code for a payment options?

As long as you allow your property taxes to go unpaid, the more expensive and risky it

Say you need to pay your property taxes as a result of the loss of the property.

Are there any bonds required for property taxes in Oklahoma?

And I understand they're not allowed to charge us direct taxes with property tax falls under

The property tax is considered a direct tax, but we're not supposed to have a direct tax.

in your favor, then that will have the effect of rendering void all the property tax codes

What I understand is they're not allowed to charge a direct tax with property tax falls under that diet.

The property tax is considered a direct tax but we're not supposed to have a direct tax.

if the court rules in your favor, then that will have the effect of rendering void all the property tax codes

in we talked about property taxes, and you mentioned a fellow in New York

The next question I had has to do with an issue I have with the property tax department.

property taxes.

Take the tax code, for instance. Your property taxes are being illegally assessed and illegally collected

get the wheels off of it then it becomes a real property, right, for property tax, Eddie

But if he was to buy property, then there would be a property tax involved.

Well, the property tax is a different issue. There would be a tax involved if a trust had

$8,000 in property taxes to record it, transfer taxes.

you had mentioned something about to somebody that they were talking about paying property taxes on their home.

and they need to go down somewhere and reclassify that and then no property taxes would be.

And that takes you off the public tax rolls where you actually have to pay property tax.

But on the other side of this, if you stop paying property taxes,

because of the taxes, the transfer taxes, and then going forward the property taxes

that sets the property tax value and the property taxable value can only increase 2% a year

The property taxes in California are well above the high point of 2007.

That's in my instance, I was paying $3,000 a year property tax and the new person in

but I would still like to kind of pick your brain at it for a second and get your views as far as property tax.

Property taxes on private property are completely unconstitutional and unlawful.

Here, folks, all of you with these property tax issues,

Yeah, if they needed funds, that was how property taxes were raised was voluntary taxation of private property to fiscally support a bill that you were going to vote in favor of.

I got here a week or two ago dealing with the land patent and property taxes. Under

The property taxes upon land under a land patent are patently void under the contractual terms, as well as a violation of the Texas Constitution.

paying these property taxes and different things when they don't actually have to um they just need

I can condemn his property for failure to pay me that fee that I want to charge him and I am free to raise or lower that fee at my own whim, such as the nature of property tax.

Eddie, I talked to you about a year or so ago about a problem with my property taxes.

Okay, under property taxation, division one, part one, chapter one of the California tax code, subsection F, the definition of in this state.

Right now, one of the biggest debates that's coming to the floor in the Texas legislature is tax, property tax reform.

These idiots do not seem to get the concept that property tax doesn't need reformation. It needs abolishment.

At this time, before this latest hurricane came ashore, property taxes, I mean, property

You're not talking property taxes.

Kind of like property taxes on your house, right?

So they come up with this scheme where we will, the state will provide you with protection and you pay for that protection with property taxes.

If you take yourself off the property tax rolls, we won't come and protect you.

But the only reason that I'm being put in the position I'm in right now or in anybody that is paying property taxes

You want to reason that anybody pays property taxes so that they don't get their land stolen from them generally.

But one of the things is you can bring forth an alloidal title and opt out of the property tax,

You can't enjoy the benefit of any of the social structures that are purchased for those property taxes,

Well, those property taxes were all taken under threat of violence.

Well, what happens when you don't pay your property taxes?

Regardless, the money that they take from property taxes is done under threat or coercion every time.

And now you say, well, I didn't agree to pay a property tax, so I don't have to pay it.

But I have a son-in-law who's a fireman, and he would not care if you had paid your property taxes or not.

I mean, do you want to pay property taxes?

Does anybody want to pay property taxes?

Yeah, I was thinking exactly that when you said it. I came out of my mouth and I'm thinking, I don't want to pay property taxes.

But I'll pay property taxes not because they'll come and beat me up and take my property, but because I'm paying for amenities that I get to enjoy.

No, I don't think so. Not when somebody comes along and says, you pay your property taxes or we'll take you to court and steal your land.

Yeah, the agreement was already there when you purchased the property. You knew there were court property taxes.

Okay, look at it this way. What if you get unemployed? You're entirely self-proclaimed except for you don't have any money coming in and you can't afford to pay the property taxes.

There are all sorts of things you can do to deal with property taxing.

OK, all right. Oh, and just so that the last guy that you were talking to about property taxes and services, police protection, fire protection.

I have a friend in Orlando, Florida who has not paid property taxes in over 10 years.

You're going to disagree with me, but they do not have the authorization to raise property taxes in the first place.

Well, they just plain don't have the authority to raise property taxes.

But when you do that, you can't use city water, you can't use any of the amenities that property taxes contribute to.

property taxes or something of that nature there's an actual in Austin

like to touch on, and that is going back to a property tax issue. Okay. And after, after,

individual. In the property tax code or in the property code rather, and look at the property tax

of the property tax. Because this gets to feel legal as the transportation issues that we're

Is that somewhere I should go look as far as property tax?

Right now in Texas, there's a big uprising over property taxes and there should be

because it'd be shooting myself in the foot anyways because my property taxes would probably

How many of the bills that you see coming due in the legislature are slated to put an end to property taxes?

Eddie, it's good to talk to you again. I appreciated your commentary there, especially on the property tax.

And it's very true when you charge a property tax, you're basically taking ownership and just putting it in the hands of a rental agreement.

tax. I'm not talking about the municipal and property tax. I'm talking about the taxes

That's all I know to tell you. I'm not that familiar with the property tax codes.

That says it has in the property tax code

And by agreement, by getting a mortgage is what was the nexus to the property tax.

And once you didn't have old money or the mortgage anymore, then the property tax subsided.

Randy, I have a property tax issue that I'm trying to resolve with a tax collector, and I asked for factual evidence that I owed the tax using the debt validation process and that the state had titled to the land where without that evidence,

With the attitude, I don't have to do anything you ask and you're going to have to pay the property tax and or else they'll take your land away from you.

Well, the issue is my parents paid property tax to pay it off their house about 20 years ago.

And if they don't have evidence that you owe the property tax, then there's 20 years of property tax payments that are, you know...

Well, I think it's bigger than the property tax.

Put it in the context of unable to provide evidence that I owe property tax. See, that is a crime.

in very specific areas and it had something to do with DNA testing, taxes, property taxes,

Oh, it was the property tax issue. And I asked for evidence and based on the Idaho Open Records Act, they were supposed to respond in writing within three days. And when they don't, they have to have a statute, a justification for the rejection.

Stefan, the best thing I can tell you, read the code. I don't know the code in Idaho, and I specifically don't know the code concerning property tax issues or open records issues.

It was property tax, but I've been going through the Idaho code to figure out where that applies.

Oh, property tax, property tax. Okay, I remember property tax, criminal civil.

a right to public services, which the property taxes pay for.

no longer have to pay land to property taxes.

taxes, but if you're not paying property taxes, then you could contract with whatever service

If you're not paying your county property taxes, you're not contracted with the sheriff either.

I read in the Texas, uh, property tax code, uh, subject for B eleven point one three J

Were you familiar with, with that, uh, clause in the, uh, Texas property tax code of the

That's just another argument for why property taxes can't be applicable to private property

Well, I was just using the terminology that was used in the Texas property tax.

because it lowers your property taxes.

on the covenant restrictions, it reduces your property taxes.

because in effect they're trying to pull off property tax scam

by not, you know, you get a property tax reduction

they lose property tax income, okay,

the more income they get for property taxes.

and property taxes,

and claimed a property tax decrease,

And so that means the property tax bill is gonna be lower.

because they're not getting the property tax

from property taxes.

When you think about this, the Texas Constitution specifically prohibits property taxes, does it not?

The state of Texas does not levy your property taxes. Who does? Your counties and your municipalities.

How do they do that? Through the enactment of ordinances. If ordinances cannot be binding public law into the Texas Constitution, how can they create property taxes on private property protected by that Constitution?

Think about that. You want to fight the property tax issue? Well, there you go.

The county and the city are the ones implementing the property taxes. They're doing it via ordinance.

about a property tax situation I have here in Arizona

in relation to property tax that the Ninth Circuit Court has done.

or pocketed the property taxes

or portion of the property taxes for their own use

what is the founding basis for private property tax

government and property tax issues and all these things. It's the same strategy every

it this is property tax. No, no. Income. Income tax. Oh. This is income tax. What happened

but since it's not property tax, they can't, as far as I know,

generally they can't for taxes unless it's property taxes.

Right. Property taxes. That's another story. Right.

man said. My journey actually really, truly began with property taxes and fraud through

those property taxes that I went after the county for because they were defrauding my mother and I

Okay, I'm into a property tax battle.

I'm not as familiar, technically familiar with property tax.

Yeah, it's on this property tax.

What I'm going to come to is like I'm so curious to guess and then try to find where it is in the law to protect a tax to collect property tax.

Then when you show up at trial with something traumatic jurisdiction on the property tax,

It is. Okay, you're welcome. Very welcome. Okay, I'm still working on my property tax thing. I just sent off my tort letter.

If you have talked to Eddie about property taxes,

of how property taxes work in Pennsylvania?

Well, actually, there's several different kinds of property taxes.

There's city property taxes.

There's school board property taxes.

New Jersey's property taxes are so high,

when the legislature passed property taxes,

Jerry, that's the back side of getting out of paying property taxes because then you don't have a right to the services.

in a property tax battle now and I talked to you a few months ago about this and

property therefore the state's unable to collect the property taxes against your

property taxes. Yes, I have to think

your property and in order to collect property taxes they would have to prove

And I believe that aspect of that could be property taxation and homeowners associations and things of that nature.

Other than that, I recall you talking about you had a bit of an experience in property tax related matters.

And I challenged him on it and actually got them to back down, and they quit sending her property tax notices till the day she died.

But they do that in ways other than property tax.

County taxes $1,000, county property taxes $349, city property taxes, but we don't know if they paid that or not.

Yeah, but we have a problem with the property taxes.

There was one female judge here in the state that declared that the common law has always recognized property taxes on private property and the woman is absolutely brain dead and full of crap.

The original 1824 Texas Constitution in the Bill of Rights specifically stated that no man could be deprived of his property or his property taken or sold or his property taxed without his express consent.

about to win that and writing the property tax and hopefully that's going well.

with property tax issues and traffic tickets and things like that.

I'm working on my property tax case and getting ready to go after the county, the treasurer and the assessor.

It seemed on property taxes and such.

He was calling him the show about tax issues, property tax and sales tax.

Is property tax an excise tax?

I mean, property tax is a direct tax, correct?

Now, the courts did hold that the way the state was doing property taxes was unconstitutional.

subject to property taxation, all property within the jurisdiction of this state,

not expressly exempted, is subjected to appraisal assessment and property taxation.

Randy, I have a couple of questions for you tonight. One's real simple. A few months ago, you told me in order to get the county assessor and the county treasurer to tell me what claim the state has on my property to pay property taxes,

Okay, I'm not paying property tax and they've issued liens and sold them on my property.

the question is just some research on the property tax here in Alabama and got a whole

list of things that the property tax collector. I'm going to refer to him as male but that

All right. So to set up like the property tax, the last guy resigned. I actually sued

statutory restrictions. Okay. On the property tax fight, I want to go with the fact that they

Okay. You mean the FDCPA stuff? No. Property taxes do not fall into the FDCPA.

two things at issue here in relation to the land patents and the property taxes. Okay. The first

okay, which is what the property taxes are supposed to be when it comes from private

I thought my property tax issue you had told me that I needed to tell the assessor to take me

That happened to me in Fort Worth across from City Hall in the property tax section.

only thing you could find is maybe and property taxes that he's paying and

I had that happen to me in Fort Worth across from City Hall in the property tax section,

But they're not, okay, but they're applying laws just like the property tax laws for police officers who are not responsible to actually know the law only to enforce the law.

But when I looked into land patents, I found that there were two sides to that. It may turn out that if you want fire and police protection and you have to contract with them separately, that may wind up costing you more than the property tax or the school tax.

This is property taxes.

belong to the counties you pay your county property tax and that pays for

They get it from the county property taxes and county school taxes.

If you live in Texas and you pay property taxes, you pay for those schools

Dealing with the issue of property taxes on land patents.

Your county property tax goes for those schools.

I can't help you because you won't even be able to pay the property taxes on the property even if you get the mortgage

But tonight I was hoping to get your help with Tarrant County property taxes

And that they raise the property taxes in excess of 10% and they are specifically forbidden to do that

and if you're going to Tarrant County the property tax people are right across the

paying property taxes they're not happy about their increases exactly you you tell them what the

a vehicle the state of mazuri it says that you have to show personal property taxes paid

it on the stat in the statues it says you have to show your personal property taxes being paid

overdo it it said personal property taxes paid shall have under it it says note company name

states when taxes are when licensing a motor vehicle your personal property taxes have to

is on licensing a motor vehicle you're supposed to show personal property tax shown that you paid it

you're paying property taxes to the state and that's why these people want to bring forward the

Okay, if the law is why clearly they do believe it is saying that you have to have company name and business name on the personal property tax, she has to look at that to ensure that that is on there.

What it is when it comes to your personal property taxes being paid, in law, in Missouri law, you have to show your personal property taxes being paid.

In order to have personal property taxes, you have to have some kind of business activity. That's why they state company or business.

They're tying that saying you can't have this special sticker that you're going to really want to have unless you've paid all of your personal property taxes for a person being fictional entity, of course, because who else could they deal with?

And so they're going to say that they are going to withhold your special sticker that you wanted since you didn't pay your personal property tax.

Your ability to license your motor vehicle if you actually have one, they eliminate that until you make sure you pay your personal property taxes.

And with a land patent, you're no longer subject to property taxes.

when we're going in to sue for these illegal property taxes.

And really the only reason I even looked into this is because my city is my actual taxing authority for my property tax.

Well, I appreciate it. I was just kind of curious on this Texas property tax. I started fighting several years ago, and I wrote a tax asset collector.

I am not obligated to pay property tax

to assess a property tax.

And since I had seized payments on my property tax in May of this year,

That could very easily accumulate to far more than any property taxes.

And what it revolts around is a successful tax grievance for property tax.

I had a guy in Florida who was taking on a property tax issue and he had fought this

Ken, you were telling us about your property tax issue, where you're challenging the value

paying a property tax, but I'm basically, I'm not getting my money's worth because

down to the town hall and signed me up for property taxes.

I'm not 100% sure, but property taxes are not just there.

I've heard of getting out of property tax altogether, but I'm not there yet.

It really shouldn't be a property tax.

You know, as I understand it, there really is no, you know, the property tax thing is

But I would suggest on your tax issue, unless you're on a crusade to change the world, a world of property tax,

beginning of the show when you're talking about property tax and I'm still not 100%

clear on how one gets into property tax. And I think it has something to do with the closing

I said that she was the one that went down and signed me up for property taxes. This is actually

see from it. There's nothing about property taxes mentioned in all of my research into titles.

considering a loital title needs to understand that. Your property taxes pay for services

it's still property taxes are half of what my mortgage is. Wow. Oh yeah. Yeah.

100 years old. And I had to pay $600 last year in property taxes. Yeah, I did. You'll die when

Because there are many other provisions that existed in all these original constitutions under this same clause saying they're forever accepted, including the right to have no property taxes, et cetera, et cetera, that have been removed by the powers of government

I told you that the land patent is a binding agreement. The state of Texas is in breach of contract for taking any part in property taxes in the state of Texas.

I'm going to get into it because they just doubled our property tax this year.

I always felt there's no way I could ever feel that I was free like they say an American should be if I have to pay a property tax.

I really don't have any problems with exercise tax or this or that, but, but the idea of having to pay a property tax and never being secure in my own property that it can be taken away.

But getting to my topic, if I may, I've had a long interest in the property tax. I've heard, of course, over the last few years, some of you are addressing that.

Whether I can do anything about the property tax lawfully or I just wanted information, but now it's rolled into a different phase of court.

Yeah, I, my ultimate goal would be to challenge and actually have the property tax eliminated.

But key things that I've heard speakers talk particularly that they've laid out in Florida in detail where they've defeated the property tax successfully.

She probably doesn't. We had a guy in Florida in South Florida on a property tax issue.

But he talks about how a man's house is tax-adempt property tax

presented he showed that the property was indeed over charging uh or the property tax was over

stating what the property tax code said at the time and he and I had a long discussion

okay so that was my first question um but that's the property taxes have you helped

afford half the mortgage, you can't afford the property taxes on this property.

foreclosure done. And the county is incentivized because my property taxes were $3,000 a year.

The new property taxes on that house are close to $14,000 a year. So they're collecting an

if I get a caller who has a issue with property tax I need to send him to you.

My least acceptable outcome has always been no property tax.

Okay. Aside from property tax legislation how can you frame property tax legislation in a way

intended ultimate outcome include eliminating property taxes for everyone in South Carolina?

property taxes eliminated in South Carolina? I want my property tax eliminated in South Carolina.

any taxes. What would be the least amount of property tax that you would be willing to pay

Any tax, any property tax for me is unacceptable. I'm sorry that's how I feel.

Here, you're talking about property tax. If you could get them to give you enough money that it would cover any property tax you would have to pay, then you could pay your property tax and laugh all the way to the bank.

the rates they could tax and so on and so forth. I'm referring particularly to property tax, of

on the topic, the property tax, these are not certified law enforcement. They are county entities,

Have you read the entire tax code, property tax code?

Yeah, I was hearing the guy from South Carolina a while ago talk about the property taxes.

to the assessment of property taxes.

Oh, absolutely, because most people, when they get charged a property tax, are being defrauded by whoever is levying the tax.

Most people are doing the land patents in order to get out of a property tax, but when

you get out of property tax, then you don't have a right to profit or benefit from the

services that are paid for with those property taxes.

If they do that, and then the county or the city or anyone else attempts to assess a property tax against that, then they need to get sued, because they are tortiously interfering with the contract between the landowner and the state of Texas.

I say they've mentioned it, and he was talking about the illegality, you know, of property taxes.

And because it's a binding agreement, my argument to folks that are fighting property taxes and things of that nature that actually have a valid land patent carried forward in their name is to sue the state for breach of contract and to sue the political subdivision that's actually assessing and trying to collect the tax for tortious interference with that contract.

I'm in a home right now, a house, and I don't think, I mean, I've listened to Randy sort of, he has a person on there that has to do, who helps people with property tax.

And I understood from what this man said one time on Randy's show that if you have a domicile that you're renting out, but it's less than like nine units or something that you don't have to pay property tax on it, is that correct?

Well, I'm pretty sure they've been paying property tax on it.

But that goes to what I've talked about so many times on this show in relation to property taxes is that no one has properly challenged property taxes in the state of Texas as being a breach of contract and tortious interference with a contract.

They have all tried to argue that property taxes are unconstitutional, which they are in Texas anyway.

Alright, Penny, I got one other caller up on the board, so what else do you want to know about the property tax?

Then they're stuck paying property taxes, period.

Okay, I'm going to ask you something insightful. My big goal here right now is tackling my property taxes. That is the honest truth.

I know that this whole property tax thing is a dead-gun scandal, and I'm just sick and tired of being taken advantage of, and I'm just gathering all my debts in a row.

This is the absolute first time in my entire life that I did not pay my property taxes. I'm a crew in interest. I understand that, and they're probably going to come after me,

And so I'm involved in the property tax scam issue

Yeah, I'm following Alphonse with the property tax issue.

and I'll also be including the fact that another lawyer in my property tax case got involved

How many people have filed such and such a paper form for property taxes in this county

I think they do. For property taxes, they do have something called a return in Pennsylvania

here that shows who it is that's references that's referenced for these property taxes

that might be parallel to that and you might find the answer to your property tax questions

Yeah, I just want to be clarity on something. I know you're wrapping up. I'm going to call back. My main call was about property taxes, but I know you have other callers.

Yeah, I've got one more I want to try to get before I'm off the air here. So if that's okay, you can either call back in next Monday or if you want to go with Brett and Randy on Thursday or Friday for the property tax, you can do that too.

because in California, the property tax situation, they hate us,

because we have Prop 13 that protects us from these outrageous property taxes.

Most of the guys you're talking about to talk property tax issue are absolutely right.

Property tax doesn't apply to the private individual.

But property tax covers fire and police policy enforcement

One more thing, when they talk about the property taxes, I'm not sure if you can answer this

because maybe you don't know, but when I read the property tax code, it reads as if you

It's the same property tax.

because I was only paying $3,000 a year in property taxes,

and now they're collecting more than $14,000 a year in property taxes off my home alone.

Well, if you weren't paying property taxes, you wouldn't be in that either.

I would think that would be a way to pay school tax before I pay a property tax.

They're wanting the same property tax is supposed to be for funding the school system.

tax of the property tax, which is goes toward the school.

So I have to own it before I can just say that I want to not pay property taxes or school

and the sales tax laws and the property tax laws and so many of this other crap that yeah,

Does he talk about property tax?

The property taxes, my property taxes went up the value $40,000 this year, but it was all in the timber.

why would you if you have a house why would you risk losing that house over property taxes

he's about to lose his house and this was over property taxes he's got two kids he's working

base the way they're working the property taxes they're not doing it right from what i understand

respect but be grown-ups about it property taxes has always been a real serious issue

They've got taxes, property taxes.

And you guys were talking about real estate and property taxes.

And in New York under Title I, real property tax law, there's two categories.

I want to get Alphonse on because he is a property tax guy.

He's out of Pennsylvania, but he's real deep into property tax.

Really good topic that you're trying to put together with the property taxes.

around these folks trying to apply property taxes to our private property?

Okay, we are back. Randy Kelton, Brett Fountain, Rule of Law Radio, and we're talking to Timothy in Texas about property tax. And I wanted to mention about homesteading.

Yeah, they're still charging me, I mean, they charge property tax on both the homestead, the one acre thing, and the rest of the 20 acres. They do them both.

When I read, you know, assuming we go with the notion that property taxes on our property is actually our private property is something that they can do, which I'm not sure.

There's one line that is in any biennium, which I guess means a two year period, they can't raise the property taxes more than the growth of the state economy.

So if the state economy grows five percent in each of two years, then your effective property tax after two years should be about ten point one percent more than it was before the two period two year period started.

And it got my attention because if we keep doing inflation, right, and they decide that my property's worth, you know, then suddenly I'm paying $100,000 a year in property taxes.

property taxes or yearly to register that property.

thousand dollars to register the home every year and pay county and state property taxes

every once in a while we talk about property taxes.

Figlio or Fidelio or something like that, but he specializes in property taxes and he's

Well, you shouldn't be so submissive to an agency that doesn't have any statutory authority to assess thousands of dollars from you every year just for the recording and what they call real estate property taxes.

He knows in his gut that it's not right to be paying property taxes.

We all know that property taxes are wrong because you have a right to own property and nobody can tax a right.

oh, property taxes are wrong. You don't have to pay them. And they start a fight with the tax assessor and they wind up losing their property.

of this property and property taxes?

of August, 2023, and we're talking to Timothy in Texas about property taxes.

people who's taken on the tax authority over property tax.

issue that they weren't allowed to charge property taxes, but they're still doing it.

There has to be some cases, Texas cases, where people have sued, claiming property taxes

Alrighty, I guess I called maybe a little over a month ago about the property taxes

Property taxation has been a thing.

I mean, if we're talking about property tax, well, the poll tax is unconstitutional, so

why not the property tax as well, at least for private and non-commercial?

I called you last week and you gave me suggestions on that topic of property taxes, if you recall.

said that at the first of the year, what they do is they convert a property tax lien on

But in my case, I filed a property tax lawsuit against my county, and I specifically asked

And here it is, when paying property taxes, and you write paid under protest,

Who do you know that wants to pay property tax?

So this man's property taxes for this building before he sold it was not even $100

assessing him anymore for property taxes. And I don't know if that's when he became judge,

Ron Gibson has two books out on dealing with property tax fraud.

Property taxes are generally a fraud.

if i'm going to lose my house i'm not going to pay the property tax right so they fall behind

on property taxes well am i true and correct in saying that the mortgage company will actually

step in and the mortgage company will almost always pay the property tax that's what i figure

has someone in foreclosure who doesn't pay the property tax deserves to lose the building

But what's New Hampshire going to do if they get rid of the, excuse me, the property tax?

They're not going to get rid of the property tax. They can't.

Oh God, eight years, uh, actually 12 years to put in a state income tax and reduce the property taxes.

in Worcester was $3,000. When I moved to Merrimack, New Hampshire, my property taxes were $6,000

I absolutely agree. The thought and concern is property tax is not legal. It's not allowed under

Eric, Ron DeSantis right now is in the process in Florida of eliminating property taxes,

I was 365, 364 votes away. Uh, I think that even though our property taxes are insane here,

property taxes down there. And if he's successful in doing it, I hope the entire country picks up

And that was never our founders intention. I mean, I, again, I really say that property tax is,

own to live there. No, I completely disagree with property taxes.

And yes, I would love to see property taxes gone across the entire country. I'd also like to see

If you don't pay property taxes, you're not paying for police or fire protection

In Austin, I've got a friend that pays $15,000 a year just in property taxes.
