The new year is approaching, but so far it sounds less promising than expected.
At least at the beginning of what is now the third Corona year, social and economic life is a long way from easing the pandemic situation.
With further contact restrictions, many will probably stay in their own four walls more often than they should like.
If you want to rush ahead as a homeowner or landlord, you can look through the documents for the new property tax or measure the size right away. Because the delivery of the current real estate data on the reference date of January 1st will come up to every owner sooner or later. The recalculation entails an immense effort in the new year, which the authorities will still feel.
There are certainly a few things that can be criticized about the new property tax - such as the short deadlines.
However, the fact that real estate values have so far been used for calculations that are in some cases older than half a century causes head shaking.
The reform is now eradicating that.
If the property tax is too expensive for you, you should pay attention to which party is campaigning for lower taxes and expenses, especially when it comes to the local elections.
Fortunately, this decision is still made locally.
The new beginning appears to be more than necessary, not only for property tax.
