哈普斯韦尔20年来首次全镇房产重估出结果:典型税单涨9%、税率降至4.84美元

缅因州坎伯兰县哈普斯韦尔镇11月1日发表的分析显示,该镇20年来的首次全镇房产重估结果出炉:典型房产的评估值跃升近50%,但多数居民的税单涨幅远小于评估涨幅。
据《哈普斯韦尔锚报》对全镇约5100处房产的分析,镇政府已将税率从每1000美元评估值6.66美元下调至4.84美元,以平衡评估值的上涨;即便如此,典型税单仍上涨9%,主要原因是选民批准的学校、镇与县预算增长8.5%。数据显示,略超55%的房产由账单地址在哈普斯韦尔本地的业主持有,另有15%属于缅因州其他城镇的业主,近30%属于其他州或国家的业主,其中马萨诸塞州、新罕布什尔州与佛罗里达州居前。
按2026年评估值,41%的房产低于50万美元,36%在50万至100万美元之间,14%在100万至150万美元之间,剩余9%超过150万美元;其中活动房屋价值翻倍,夏季小屋上涨75%,涨幅最大,因为这两类房产未纳入2024年的局部重估,新数值反映的是20年来的市场价格变化。举例而言,康迪港一处房产的评估值从131600美元升至226100美元,税单从2025年的718美元涨至2026年的933美元。

Harpswell's First Townwide Revaluation in 20 Years: Typical Tax Bill Up 9% as Rate Falls to $4.84
An analysis published on November 1 in Harpswell, Cumberland County, Maine, shows the results of the town's first townwide property revaluation in 20 years: the typical property's assessed value jumped by nearly 50%, but most residents' tax bills rose far less than their assessments.
The Harpswell Anchor's analysis of the town's roughly 5,100 properties found the town has cut its tax rate from $6.66 to $4.84 per $1,000 of assessed value to offset the higher values; even so, the typical tax bill rose 9%, mainly because voter-approved school, town and county budgets grew 8.5%. Just over 55% of properties are owned by people with a Harpswell billing address, another 15% by owners elsewhere in Maine, and nearly 30% by owners in other states or countries, led by Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Florida.
By 2026 assessed value, 41% of properties are below $500,000, 36% are between $500,000 and $1 million, 14% are between $1 million and $1.5 million, and the remaining 9% exceed $1.5 million. Mobile homes doubled in value and summer cottages rose 75%, the largest increases, because those property types were not part of a 2024 partial revaluation and the new figures reflect 20 years of market price changes. In one example, a Cundy's Harbor property's assessment rose from $131,600 to $226,100, and its tax bill from $718 in 2025 to $933 in 2026.
