Property Tax in Trinidad & Tobago

[zoom rader]

really don't give 2shavedshits about who let what slip out of what or slide into where.
Fact remains, ANYBODY could get their ballz squeezed in a vise because of this bs property tax, and get absolutely nothing to show for the pressure they feeling, both Baboolal & Baptiste alike.

the ppl that will feel the pinch hardest are those in the lower income bracket in society. Those whose forebears toiled & suffered themselves for years to build & develop property to leave for future genrations, and those future generations that living on limited incomes & inherit highly valued properties.

Well we all know this but PNM ppl think different. Most of them are renters, squatting and HDC.

As you said you AC your house and paid vat when buying it but now you have to pay a double tax on that.

This tax is unjust for those that worked to buy their homes and paying montages. But then you have people like eleitauto & Redman who don't see nothing wrong with it. They fully support this nonsense.

What about if you have your lil 1-bedroom leaking galvanise shack in the yard, but build your 3-4 bedroom underground in a different part of the yard and cover up the entrance with grass?

Dem coming to look for all dat?

You can't build anything under 6 ft.

The state owns 6ft under unless you got mineral rights

[Blaze d Chalice]

Yeah but how will they know?

Somebody coming to search for all that?

I talking bout generator (so they can't be suspicious of high TTEC bill) and sharing wifi from the shack.

Or if I have a few containers in the back "full of old junk and rubbish" and as soon as them done do their valuation, I clean up and put back the bed and couch and rest of furniture?

[sMASH]

It will be classed as a shed and you will still have to pay taxes.

If you build a car port you will have to pay tax on it.

Down to dog kennels and fish ponds.

But you can build one of those Hindu temples huts and not pay taxes on it

If zoom already know everything about how property tax being calculated, why not just confirm it?

Call up Devant to lodge a FOIA request into the most current valuation division assessment policy and all training, assessment and supervisory manuals used in the division.

Might tell you something interesting.

The repossession of homes goes to the state.


Hdc belongs to the state.


Who gets the hdc houses.

There you go.



Also if I walk out in my yard naked, will I be charged?
