IAR and MIBOR Support Tax Reform

The Indiana Association of REALTORS® (IAR) launched a radio campaign last week calling for the elimination of the state’s township assessment system as a component of its overall property tax reform agenda.

The radio spot began last week in every major media market statewide and will run until the end of the month. IAR also developed a short video discussing how multiple experts have been recommending this step since 1901. Both spots are hard-hitting based on extensive research and background data to support the position.

Over the last several years, MIBOR has advocated the same position regarding the role of assessors in property tax reform. The video was e-mailed to legislators on New Year’s Day.
