I'm planning to upgrade our house with the following:
- electric panel upgrade from 100 - 200 amps
- replace septic (not sure yet if we'll do it now but in the next 1-5
years)
- add storage shad

Does anyone know it these upgrades will increase my property tax as I
have to get permits from the town? I leave in NJ.

Also my neighbor offered me his nice above ground pool. Any idea how
will the pool affect my property taxes? Does it depend on pool size
and type (above/in ground) ?

Thanks,
Jack

Your increase will be $147.50 with electrical, add $137.75 for the septic.

Above ground pool will add $166.

You can store the shad in the freezer for free.

Every state in the US is different. In some states every county is
different.

Looking at what you are considering, I would suggest there will be
little or no increase in most locations as they will add little to the value
of the home.

In NY, regarding what will raise your taxes, every town, city, and
municipality is different. [and as for *how much* they will increase
things depends on school district, so in the same town there might be
3 or more different amounts]

The only way to find out is to call the municipality where you live.
Call from a pay phone and don't identify yourself if you're afraid to
mention what you're planning.

Where I live they would not result in a tax increase.

>- add storage shad

This would lead to an increase IF the shed was "attached" to a
foundation instead of just "resting" on blocks.

Oh, if in NJ then all of the above will result in large property tax
increases.
