Jennifer Ruelens, a Pennsylvania homeowner, faced a shocking annual property tax bill of $13,000 for her residential/commercial property. After uncovering discrepancies in the property's historical assessment, including its actual age being 1901 as opposed to 1868, Ruelens, an experienced property investor, decided to appeal the tax assessment, believing it was based on an inflated market value and influenced by a previous legal battle. Her extensive research, including consulting a local historian, reinforced her case against the overvaluation.
"I was able to prove (the assessment) was above market value," says Ruelens.
"Turns out, the building isn't as old as they thought it was, making it not 'technically' protected by the historic board rules," says Ruelens.
