Pre-approved in the $300k–$315k range? You can afford this $360k Highland Square home. Why? This property carries a 15-year, 100% tax abatement, meaning property taxes are frozen at the home’s pre-improvement value. The result is approximately $5,300–$6,000 per year in tax savings (˜$440–$500/month) for the next 15 years. That monthly savings significantly reduces the total housing payment and can increase buyer purchasing power compared to a non-abated home. Buyers who feel capped in the low-$300s are strongly encouraged to have their lender run numbers on this property specifically. This is NOT a flip.
