Episode Details

Delaware just made a big move on property taxes—school districts can now permanently tax rental apartments at up to 185% of the residential rate, while single-family homes stay at the standard rate. Governor Matt Meyer let the law pass without signing it, calling it unfair because apartments are being taxed like warehouses and offices, pushing up rents and hurting affordability. He believes every home—whether rented or owned—should be treated the same, warning that higher taxes on rentals could discourage affordable housing development. Though the new law gives school districts budget certainty, the fight over fair taxation between renters and homeowners is far from over.
