Tax Value of our Property
Posted: Mon Nov 27, 2017 5:48 pm
Advice needed please if possible.
We have received an email from our lawyer to advise that they have received a letter from the tax office with a tax value of our recently purchased property. The letter states that our house has been valued quite a bit higher than what we paid for it and that they require the tax from us on the difference, amounting to just under €3000.
Our lawyer said she can try and appeal against this but the appeal would cost us €500. We have emailed her back asking what our chances are of winning but has anyone else had to deal with this?
We are annoyed at having to pay the extra tax of course but also that we weren't warned that this could happen.
