A city or its municipality looks to tax properties for the purpose of strengthening its tax base. Though it is correct to tax a land structure, committed enhancement of tax on non-commercial establishments has peeved the landowners. What has made them more agonized is the fact that commercial establishments are not penalized comparatively.

A taxing authority needs to go through the appraisal of the property before levying a tax on it. This assesses the condition of a property and helps in confirming what tax might be suitable. Property tax can include drainage tax, water tax and scavenging or cleaning taxes.
Many argue that the municipality never refers to the short sale or foreclosure rates of a property. It always imposes the fair market value in order to extract a larger sum through a higher evaluation of property. Thatched roof building gets a 50 percent tax rebate while the RCC buildings get no rebate at all.
