The Southern Poverty Law Center has filed a lawsuit against the New Orleans tax assessor for allegedly lowering tax assessments for certain commercial properties during 2020, according to the Associated Press.
The lawsuit was filed by the civil rights group and two New Orleans residents on March 26; it alleges that tax assessor Errol Williams violated Louisiana law by unfairly undervaluing a select group of properties, largely owned by wealthy corporations, at the expense of New Orleans residents.
“To maintain its budget, the city was forced to make up the difference by imposing at least 7% more in taxes on all tax-paying property owners during the 2021 assessment than it otherwise would have, all other things being equal,” the lawsuit states.
The real estate market in Central City is hot right now.
At the high end, a house on South Rampart Street recently sold for $600,000 and two others, on Josephine Street and South Liberty Street, have sold in the $400,000 range. At the other end of the price and move-in ready spectrum, a house on South Robertson Street, which looks like it is only a façade covered in cat’s claw at this point, sold for $30,000.
These homes and prices also reflect the evolving housing stock of the neighborhood. A quick drive around reveals modest family homes next to abandoned houses in a state of an advanced decay next to gleaming renovations.
