Attention Minnesota Home Owners and Real Estate Agents!

On Monday, the Minnesota House of Representatives Tax Committee released a "delete all amendment" to HF2323 (Click here for updates) and added provisions that are negative for real estate in the Omnibus Tax Bill. Authored by DFL Representative Ann Lenczewski, it contains a number of tax law modifications that hurt all Minnesota home owners. Real Estate Property Tax Deductibility-This public policy provision has been included in the tax code since 1933 and allows taxpayers to deduct property taxes paid from their income. The House DFL Tax Bill eliminates the deductibility of real estate property taxes at a time when local property taxes continue to increase faster than Minnesotan's income.
At a time when the housing market is beginning to stabilize, this House DFL sponsored proposal sends the wrong message to struggling Minnesota households.

This is no more or less than the legislature sticking their hands in the pockets of home owners and taking their money.

This is a not-so obvious tax hike on home owners and amounts to double taxation.  Perhaps triple taxation.
