Voice Your Opinion on Wisconsin Property TaxesWhat do you think about your Real Estate Taxes? Do you have some ideas about your Real Estate Taxes? Would you like to be involved and have your views heard regarding Wisconsin’s Real Estate Taxes? Wisconsin Way is a new organization established to energize state wide public conversations about Wisconsin’s needs, and finding fairer ways to pay for them. The overall goal is to reduce the property tax burden without sacrificing the services that make Wisconsin a special place. Towards that end, Wisconsin Way will start by holding a series of forums around the State to hear from the public any ideas as to how this may be accomplished. To find out the time and location of these meetings, or to receive more information, call 800-919-3012 or go to www.wisconsinway.org. For those Wisconsin property tax payers who do not live in Wisconsin, this may be an excellent way to have your voice heard! |

Looking to get away for the Holidays? Why not spend a week in Lake Geneva? Call for off-season rates today!Title TipsDo you always need a new survey on a real estate transaction? The answer is no!! Many people think it is a lender requirement and that a new survey is needed on all transactions that are financed, however, we as a Title Company will waive survey exceptions on the mortgage policy for the lender without a new survey. Also, if an acceptable survey is provided to us, no matter how old the survey is, and there have been no improvements since that date, we will also waive the survey exceptions on the owners policy. Just provide us with a copy as soon as feasible, we will review and let you know if it’s acceptable or how to proceed. When should you have a new survey? You should have a new survey on new construction or spec homes or if the property has had improvements since the last survey was done, with respect to pools, outbuildings, new deck or patio, or extensive landscaping. It is always a good idea to have a survey on the property you are buying or selling, but it is not absolutely essential that it be a new survey. This is negotiated as part of the Offer to Purchase and what is comfortable to all parties. At Southeastern Wisconsin Title Company, LLC, we provide a wide range of services in addition to closings. Please ask us about our 1031 Exchanges and Construction and Escrow services. We are Insuring Your Investment and strive to create a quality experience for you as we guide you every step of the way.
