dude, I go thru ARB on average about a dozen properties every year.. i never get to set the value. When you appeal, the ARB chooses a value. Dont like that then you get to a judge on appeal. At no point do i get to set a value. I get to give a statement of opinion of value but nothing more.. means very little without supporting evidence.FLBear5630 said:4th and Inches said:when do i get to tell the state of texas what my properties are worth..is FL that stupid to let people decide their own property values?!FLBear5630 said:Geez, check it out for yourself. Trump has had these problems for decades. He lost under the same Statute twice before. A statute that had been around since 1957. It was no surprise that NY was trying to get him to set an example. The surprise is he did NOTHING about it to protect himself. He simply said "Try it". They did and he lost.Wangchung said:And yet he wasn't investigated for it until after the fishing expedition by a DA that ran on finding something, ANYTHING to go after Trump over, right? Then the ONLY way they could get him was by undervaluing his property by tens of millions of dollars. You keep squirming and twisting but those are the facts your narrative cannot get around.FLBear5630 said:Come on, he is worth 10B dollars and has a whole Corporation at his disposal. You telling me that he can't delegate? I remember this being discussed 3 years ago, Westchester County property values. NY said they were going after that whole area.Wangchung said:FIFYFLBear5630 said:And the DA claimed the person inflated their property and claimed they used it to get financing by severely undervaluing their properties . You keep forgetting that part, she did it.Wangchung said:Unless they find out someone donated to Trump or the latest target of democrats.Frank Galvin said:
No question this is a bad look for NY courts as far as a business atmosphere. On the other hand the lawyers are telling them- Trump's defense strategy was incompressible and the AG was on a career boosting mission that is not going to be duplicated. So the result is highly unlikely to repeat.
You have an AG that ran on going after you four years ago and you don't double check you books? Make amended appraisals? Do something to limit your exposure? You just say, "Oh well, everyone does it. It will be fine?"
You're pretending like Trump wasn't busy dealing with other political attacks and should have known they would lie about the value of his assets, assets that his lenders had no problem financing based on his valuation.
Trump started getting into it with NY about property values in 2002, this is not a new witch hunt. He has done this stuff. He finally ran into an AG that followed through. He did nothing since 2002 to protect himself, he knew this was a NY State issue and his sons are more to blame than him as they manage the day to day.

Trump Organization faces new criminal inquiry tied to one of its N.Y. golf clubs : NPR
Here is an article from 2016 where he valued the Golf Course for 50M and then told the State it was only worth 1.9 for tax purposes. That is the **** that got him in this mess. Even if you give a 50% markdown because we know Tax Value is lowere than sales value, it is 25M. He was doing stuff that was ridiculous. But, it won't matter, he should be left to do what he wants.

You can challenge any assessment, even in Texas. Take a look, there was s always an appeal process.
I find it interesting, no matter what Trump does. What grift, work around or abuse of other people's money there is an excuse that anyone that calls him on it is wrong. Especially interesting coming from Baptist that rail in the sinfulness of pretty much everyone, except Trump. He is a victim.
You guys want this guy in power and view him as a champion of the people? Amazing.
