Congrats. It's a great market for a buyer right now with so many houses in foreclosure.
Damien, if I were you, I'd contest the property tax appraisal. The value that you are paying on has to be what the house is worth today, not what it was worth a year ago. If the house were worth more, it would have sold for its fair market value and it did not.
The worst that can happen is for them to say no but sounds like you might be able to get a $1,000 or more knocked off that tax bill.
PM me if you need any help.
