Tax values and returns cloud West Virginia land taxes
West Virginia county assessors valued private land at 5.5 billion in 2002, yielding 99.4 million in taxes. Lawmakers question appraisals as last year’s average tax per acre was 7.26 dollars with waterfront land at 254, farmland 3.64, and timber 2.20. The state offers farm and timber tax breaks to spur development, while discounts reflect future income and rent value. Senate Finance Chairman aims to present subcommittee recommendations by year’s end.
