Inflated, overblown real estate appraisals are great for the NYC tax dept. Your real estate taxes will be calculated on a percentage of the "market value" of your home.....and thus raised accordingly!
Then you'll get a second kick in the ass when you have to increase your home owner's insurance coverage!
So, as you see, both NYC and the insurance companies benefit from this shady practice!
And.....everybody thinks that the NYC real estate is healthy and that dwellings are in high demand!
Wake up folks....it's a buyers' market out there and homes are siting awaiting sale for longer periods of time. Prices are also dropping!
