who owns the hangar?  Municipality or are you renting from a private owner?

When I had my plane 3 years ago at KMPI. I owned the hanger, paid a ground lease of $63.00 and property taxes about $250.00 a year.  Leases were renewable every 10 years.   Monthly ground lease was adjusted yearly based on consumer price need.  I sold it after 10 years of ownership and made $1,500.00.

Not political in nature, just stating a fact...............we [California] do have still intact, proposition 13 which limited the previous runaway property tax swell years ago.

Texas does have a percentage limit per year now but, we still get hammered on property taxes - the ISD (school taxes) are what hit us hardest. I have city, county, and school property taxes. For a while we had 2 school taxes (Carrollton and Lewisville since I live on the border of each). State finally fixed that so  Lewisville ISD decided to raise out ISD taxes... And I have no kids in scholl for a decade.. Such is life ;o)

Incidentally Parker, do you know if the IADA data includes our small general aviation airplanes, or is it mostly private jets and turboprops ? 

Thank you.

Ah, AOPA reports the IADA data is for business aircraft sales.  Doesn’t say anything about us small general aviation aircraft.

As anecdotal evidence, we recently put our Sundowner on the market (after buying our M20E), and within two or three days we had several serious buyers that devolved into a two-buyer bidding war.  It is now under contract, and we got our asking price, which is more than we would have expected six months ago.

Congratulations!  Possibly fixed gear aircraft are not as affected by these recent premium hikes as are our retractables.

Enjoy your wonderful E model..... one of my favorites!! :D
