Four things worth knowing
Property tax, a year
Of a home’s value: the median bill over the median home value. On a $400K home, about $4,500 a year.
Taxes vs. neighborsCheck the flood map
Flood insurance isn’t in a standard policy, and lenders require it in FEMA flood zones. Check the address before you make an offer.
Natural hazardsLook up any property
Assessed value, lot size and every past sale of a home you’re eyeing are public, at the town or county assessor and the registry of deeds.
