- zerbinxx 3y agoMy understanding is that in Oregon, new construction property taxes are higher than on older units
- dawnerd 3y agoOld property gets locked in until there’s something to trigger a change. There’s a couple ways to avoid it a good contractor can work around. It’s not the rate that’s lower on the older property it’s the property value. They have a law that limits how much it can increase per year similar to prop 13 but it can transfer to new owners. Makes old houses worth significantly more than some new homes.
