hmm idk - maybe I am remembering wrong? even still pretty close @ 4K… I was probably looking at around 160K houses give or take.

I ended up in Kenmore, which is just as bad really, villages ream you with their extra tax. Town Tonawanda for a comparable lot to mine is like 2K, mine is about 4K

edit: lol reading this thread apparently I am very bitter about my taxes 😃

either way, congrats - home ownership rules, building new is going to be very nice in the end but will be a PITA getting there. Are you paying someone to GC everything or are you going to be coordinating with the builders, plumbers, electricians etc. yourself?
