- I was shocked with my new annual tax notice that my property taxes are going up over five hundred dollars every year after i built my hay barn. The government is out of control with taxing and it really is hurting farmers.. We also attend the state archery competition and try to keep up with the kids.. Thanks for watching and God Bless!

They want to control all farmers and homesteads 😢 control the food..control the people 😢
Welcome to the Biden administration. 🙄
And we are just going to have to put an end to their aspirations, We the People are in charge and we pay the bills! Prepare for a rocky road until next Jan and fight for your freedom with all your might!❤️🇺🇸👍
This is an outright persecution. They are monsters. They have to eat too. Why, why, to the farmers and homesteaders. Excessive beyond belief.
@@k-lo0007😂😂😂 you must be new to government. It definitely shows.
If they didn't show up to verify that it's a hay barn just took satellite or drone from above I would appeal. No harm in trying it's not a shop or living quarters.
We ALL NEED TO VOTE THOSE PEOPLE OUT OF OFFICE ASAP! Need a President like the one that one in Argentina and immediately started eliminating all the different taxes and Govt agencies.
They aren't expecting you to do the math, Gary. It's past time for all of us to start voting for people that aren't so willing to dig so deeply into our pockets.
Your farm is beautiful. Your family is amazing. Your animals are happy and healthy. You are blessed.
Unfortunately the government doesn't like the independent farmstead! Tax them out of existence
Farmers ain't the only ones paying high property taxes. Unless you're a millionaire on a mansion with money to burn EVERYONE else pays higher taxes. Rich folks the only ones off the hook. Stop voting for those who only shmooze to please the rich folks. They will never work to help the rest of hard working Americans. Unless you make over $250K a year, they're just empty promises.
The Horrific thing is you’ve already paid for it! Taxes are illegal!!!
Yes
Please protest as this is a hay barn with no power and no doors!
Exactly what I think.
And just two walls!,
Yea no power, only 2 walls, no water and no doors or windows. Its a half shell.
Unfortunately when they're assessing the property its not whether a structure has walls or doors, its whether it has a roof. If there's a roof, it will be taxed. But I would still protest how much its assessed for because its not an enclosed structure.
I agree in New Mexico it has to be an enclosed structure. I don't think it can be that different where you are at.
I'm a 70 yr. Old great grandmother. I'm disabled and pretty much home bound. I'm a subscriber to your channel and many of your CZcams creator friends.
You all are very family faithful. And all of you give God the glory.
I love watching your clips. It gives me a great view of the beautiful out door life, that I once enjoyed so much. You are teaching your precious children wonderful values.
God will bless you because of this theft. And, it is a theft. He loves you and yours. Keep being who you are and wait for that blessing. God's children get persecuted more so than non- Christians. But your love of God and family will always be your saving grace.
Thank you for each video.
Hugs from a fan in Texas.❤
Who says that you are old, not until you reach 💯, get out and smell the roses, you don’t have to prune them?!👃🌹🌷🌹
@lovespurpleflowers I have a grandson who made me a sitting area outside, and planted me some flowers. He also placed birdfeeders up for me. On a nice day. I can walk out my apt. Door over to my sitting area. I take my O2 and inhalers. It can be pretty outside. Selling my farm house and land to move to town was hard. But, I'm safer. I'm happy for families like these good people; the Walkers. ❤️
Me also! I'm 77
They hit Dutch a few weeks ago. Even measured his sheds!! It's getting out of hand.Great job kids!!!
The new calf is adorable. I hope mama will let it become more gentle. Taxes are completely out of control everywhere for everybody. Senior’s can’t afford for taxes, insurance, and maintenance to go up so much.
It’s not only farmers. Our home was revalued to double what it was so guess how much our taxes went up. Seniors can’t afford double property taxes 😖
Grieve your taxes through the assessor. I'm a senior as well and do this every year, if you don't grieve they will raise your taxes.
We live in wagoner County and our small home doubled in tax and we have had no improvements in the last year.
You have to go to the county assessor's office and fill out a protest form, you might be able to do it online if they have an interactive website. Since it is farmland you should get farm and or ag discounts and homestead discounts.
Our county uses drones; they raised ours a lot based on “roofs”. We went in to ask why, and tell them most of those new “roofs” were movable shelters for pigs, goats, and rabbits. She snottily said it didn’t matter!
Funny thing, when we refinanced our house and property 3 years ago, that assessor stated that no outbuildings had any affect on valuation (because they may or may not be a positive). I realize there is a difference between market value and taxable value, but counting movable shelters is beyond ridiculous. Not to mention that you already paid tax several times to build your barn (tax on the materials, labor?, building permit…). I am so over it.
My tax chargers me $1300 every year for a shed that was here before I bought my 1970 mobile home..smh. anything for the $ . Take care
My assessment went up 24% and I had absolutely NO improvements. I’m on a fixed income and it’s ridiculous.
😯
Look how much goes to the schools! I always vote for schools because it holds the value of your home but I’m glad I’m not raising children now a days. I’m 67 and have to save $400. Mo out of my ssi to just pay the property taxes for 6mos. Vote vote vote
😂😂😂 looks like you don’t pay attention to home value according to the market, the government sure does.
That is ridiculous. Why dont they tax the very rich and these corporations who pay next to nothing. If you would be a corporate farm they would give you tax breaks. You should protest it.
BEcause the corporations own our representatives.
Its about control.
The very rich lobbyists are making the laws especially in the House of Representatives. As long as we keep those in office who rather schmooze to the rich folks than work to help the average American citizen, average working folks gonna stay on the short end of things including taxes.
Gary I would protest that high tax increase - it seems ridiculous to me ‼️ Good luck with that 🙏🤞🍀💚
I love watching your channel ,not just for the animals but for those beautiful sweet children what a blessing they are❤❤❤❤❤
They always come unannounced. We added a wooden fence for our dogs and raised ours. It's crazy. Kids did a great job.
My sister was forced to put a new septic system in by the county and then they raised her taxes for the improvement! She also has to pay $400 year to have it examined every year! And pay the county a fee to submit her inspection! Our government is out of reach!!! She called the county and forced them to come out to reevaluate
That new calf is adorable! Name suggestions Female Peppercorn Male Pepperjack! Taxes are out of control.
I thought of Cayenne, Serrano or Carolina
Legit complaint. Taxes here in Nebraska are ridiculous! I swear they're going to start charging for the air we breathe soon.
Contest them every year. Don't let them increase more than state posted percentage.
Taxes are out of control😢
No the governments all over the world are out of control, people need to take control back of their own lives.
No they raise your taxes without leaving their offices.
Usually there are instructions included on how to protest!! I wouldn't just accept it; I would protest! Nothing ventured , nothing gained!! Pray!! I will add that to my prayers for you!!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
🤠 PRAYing! ... 🙏🙏🙏
Wow! I believe Ranger is having a growth spurt. He seems to have grown 6 inches!
Good job guys!
I have to say that I was dreaming last night about the taxes and about how much money we really have after ALL the taxes have been paid! Highway robbery. Does the government think we don't do the math? I love the newest calf. It is so nice to see Mazzy so happy with her archery and Ranger also loves what he is doing. I love your channel and watch as much as I can🤗🤗💞💞💙💙
Your new calf is just darling❤ Those taxes are ridiculous and out of control!
It's all about "power and control." I was hoping politics would not reach these wonderful people... 🤔
You’re not kidding about it getting out of control Gary! It’s ridiculous! 😡
Way to go, Mazzie! I am particularly partial to lefties as both of my children, and 2 of my grandchildren, are lefties!! Such a great activity for both of you to participate in! GREAT job, Ranger!! You are a busy guy to keep up with archery AND basketball!! Thanks for sharing the sweet little heifer, Gary!! The High Park breed is new to me, so I am doing some reading on the Oklahoma State website!! Those American Bresse chickens are pretty, too!! In my county, property taxes have increased 40% this year--and homeowner's insurance increased 50%. I am retired, so my income has NOT increased--I am going to have to sell my home as I can no longer keep up with the costs of home ownership.
Congrats to the kids on their archery and basketball skills! The new calf is pretty!!❤
That calf is gorgeous. My county kept dropping the value of my homestead to 45K, on the newest one, now they went back up to 77K, and yes the tax they charged went high too! (Minnesota is a demonic state!) Government overreach.
Must be the season for angry Toms! Dutch’s Tom has been trying to go after him a lot. The new calf is pretty, and love the baby sheep also! Wow, can’t believe that taxes are like that!
Must be the time of year.. Tom Henry is getting worse
Key word “fair”. Check online for comparable nearby properties. What type of increase did others get. My concern is, how “exactly” are the taxes being spent. Lastly, there may be a seat for you (in your spare time)!!
You find comparable properties like yours and compare their taxes to yours. If it's not comparable that's what you show them with satellite pics or tax info.
I thought the whole family would like these. I'm happy he liked them.
Love watching your family. Thank you all for sharing your lives with us all. ❤
Way to go Mazzy! Looking forward to see your flowers in bloom❤
One of my good friends was a National Champion Archer. Absolutely amazing to watch. And it takes a lot of strength too. Love watching.
That is excessive increase in taxes! The new calf is gorgeous!❤️🙏🏻🇺🇸🇦🇷
HELP IS ON THE WAY!!! JUST HANG ON A LITTLE BIT LONGER!!!
Fight it at tax accessors office
Appeal it. It won't cost you any more than time. Quite often a reduction is awarded simply to reduce the workload
My property has been in our family trust since the 70’s. Last year the decision was made to break the trust and sell the majority of the property, 900 acres. My little acreage 5 acres, the taxes then increased 450%!! I did call, and the county didn’t realize it was just a exchange between family members, since my last name is different. Now I have to go to the land assessors meeting and request that they change it back to what it was prior. - 450% increase! That is totally wrong.
The new calf is adorable. The new lamb is sweet too. The taco. Your barn tax is ridiculous. Protest! So glad the kids love all the sports
Fun. 💞
Little calf is cute. Enjoyed the video. That’s ridiculous on the property tax raise. Don’t blame you about being upset. Property taxes here are ridiculous also.
We just got a letter also. Never seen anyone here either. Ours went up over $100.
Keeping it Dutch is having the same problems.
Our property taxes for 2023 doubled and we didn't have ANY IMPROVEMENTS
The barn isn't a full barn. It's a roof with 2 walls. I don't blame you for wanting to dispute that raise.
Literally just an open shed
@WalkerFarmFam Maybe we can all call your State Rep or whom ever you'd call for something like that.
I'm sure we could rally your CZcams and Facebook Family.
You should talk to Dutch (Keepin it Dutch)…😊
I hear you! Ours have been raising each year as well to the tune of almost 8 times the value of the property when purchased. It's wild. We live in the PNW and trust me, I feel the pain just as everyone else. So sorry it happens everywhere it seems. We struggle to build something and then we are taxed right out of it. It's a crime! So sorry, I'm getting ready to pay ours soon and it is painful to say the least.
Talk to Dutch about the tax stuff... he did a video
I just had my property taxes go up $1220.00 a year without any improvements. I'm only on 2 acres in Grant county, Moses Lake, Washington.
Bummer about the taxes!😟🤨
Gary, tax mess is highway robbery!! Where I’m at everything in your name gets taxed over and over, fire, EMS, trash dump; you’re takes on each vehicle, pull trailer, not just your home, it makes my blood boil! Don’t get me started on the light bill! That this month tripled doing nothing any different😡How do they think we are suppose to eat and live !
I would definitely dispute that amount for the added barn taxes. Ranger and Mazzie did great at Archery! 🙂
Hi there well done Ranger and Mazzy at state archery 🏹 and also Ranger at basketball 🏀 The new calf is a looker so glad she brought it up for the herd that gave us the chance to see too. Have a great week take care God bless 🙏💕
This video was jam packed with so much awesomeness! But the best parts are the kids thriving! Mazzy is so good at archery already! Keep getting better kids it's a skill you can use in the future! It's fun it's good if you needed to launch ropes into trees for building shelters and many other things! I'm glad they all can enjoy archery, it's something Mazzy can do with her brothers which can be hard to find at their ages!
That's ridiculous! To up taxes to 20,000.
Democrats Trying to get rid of farmers taxes are ridiculous vote Trump
The Government is so tuff on you guys, sorry Gary 😢 you do such hard work and deserve a break
Well the current gov. doesn’t a call us a tax farm for nothing. Someone has to pay for the extra nearly 10 trillion dollars spent in the last 3 years.😢
I live in an apartment in Winnipeg, Manitoba. A 74 year old senior. Not a fancy place by any means, adequate and I’m grateful to God for a roof over my head. Rent increase for this year $60 a month. So hard to find all that at one go. Landlord allowed by law 2 1/2 percent. Asked for 4 1/2 percent znd board approved it. We will be living in tents in the park before long. Theft for sure
I can't afford to live in the US . At 65, I lived in Kenya on the beach. I miss my family but its all I can afford
@@peacockgrandma Good thing is if we keep our faith that God will provide He will make a way. I will say 🙏 for you too
Most people I know who have protested it have been able to get it reduced some. But we are in a different state. Praying for wisdom 🙏
Your kids are so good at everything they try Gary and Cassie!!! I'm sure you are very proud parents.👍😊 The new calf is adorable❣🐄💕
The calf is beautiful.
That's absolutely ridiculous paying 500.00usd per year for adding the barn can you call them to see if they can do anything about it, have a great day 🙏
I live on Long Island in New York. I own a two story house built in 1940 with a 1 car detached garage and my property is 40 x 100. My property taxes with a senior citizen discount are over $14000 per year. I’m sorry the assessor got you.
What a tax hike! Your calf and mama cow are sure pretty. Great competitions for the kids.
Baby calf if gorgeous!❤
Free money is never free. I put a new roof &siding on house and small garage and my taxes increased as well. Part of life.
Go to County Assessors office and see if you can get lowered due to farm exemption, Homestead etc
Dutch is going through the same thing, almost.
They are supposed to get permission from the home owner to come on property.
Gary please protest and will pray things will work out for you. I feel they want to tax folks off there property so to have control of it. Other folks are having the same problem of which doesn't end up good. Sending Loving prayers for y'all.
Wednesday is adorable so is that calf. ❤❤ that assessment is outrageous considering it is not 4 sided.
Pretty new calf! Dutch and Brandon both have an ornery turkey!
Dutch is having words with them also. Do they give you the chance to appeal it? Do you have a friend that is a realtor? They can help you get started.
That is so true about the government they do what they want to do. God bless the family 🙏💖
Its awful knowing we will never truly own our property. Having to pay taxes that just keep going up every year in order to keep your property is ridiculous!!. A percent here and there is ok but 24% is terrible on a fixed income. Definitely protest it Gary!! If you don't they'll keep doing it!! Thanks Gary and good luck 🙏✌️👋 baby calf is beautiful!!
Ýes! Protest it! There should be instructions on your tax letter, that tell you how to protest. Or go to their website and find the Protest instructions!!
My late wife and I built a house in a new development in 2006 and I've objected to the property value for tax purposes every time it has changed except this past year. I was successful in getting a lower value every time also. You probably can find the value of other similar properties in your immediate area and see how much their property value for tax purposes was raised. Before this year I was dealing with neighbors whose property tax went up or down in ways the county could not rationally explain. It takes time but it's worth a shot.
My girls taxes increased when they added a rock driveway and concrete patio
Good to see your family growing. Beautiful new calf. ❤
Hang on, things are going to change by the end of this year. Hang on to the hand of God too.
I notice all students using left hand bows at the shoot.
I was wondering why.
But if we dont try let them know we're not happy they think it's ok . At least state your feeling's
Enjoyed your video and the baby calf is so adorable 🥰 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
24:50...Not your entire life! There are perks to being a senior.
In Colorado the ruling that kept our property taxes under control was voted out so that businesses would be taxed at a higher rate. Property values increased, and a new assessment was done on those values. Our property taxes went up 30% this year! Without any improvements!!! So 3% with having an improvement made doesn't sound bad to me.
It was closer to 20%
Oh my that’s alot
My taxes went up that much and I didn't even have any improvements, it's crazy!
I love that calf so cute ❤ moo moo 🐮 adorable
She’s a Daddys girl, great job Mazi( if I spelled her name wrong I’m so sorry) great job Sis!🥰 🏹
Hope you are all ok. I saw there are terrible fires in Texas. God Bless. Be safe.
Ours got increased in little Greenville Ohio 35,000 dollar increase property value. Raising our taxes at least 1000 a year. Frustrating with no improvements. This was done by the street view. Crazy. People are doing it to themselves by asking too much for properties. Outrageous.
Congrats on the new calf.....
I’m so sorry, about the taxes, Gary. My daughter’s home was reassessed school taxes, second year in a row. This is a nice suburb in Columbus area, in a very nice home that has not changed. But, some homes are going up around them. Well, (are you sitting down?)their SCHOOL taxes went UP another $40,000/yr. We are in a small farm community near by, and they are building ALL AROUND us. Yep, ours are starting to creep up, and we’re holding our breadths about the election. What is going on in this country?
Just know, you did the right thing in keeping up improvements on your property. That’s what America is about. Forging ahead and protecting your property. God has given us dominion over His creation, and I thank Him all the time, for conscientious, Christian farmers who keep doing the right thing, despite the obstacles. I’m sorry this is happening, to your family. Be blest always☦️👩🏻🦳🐾♥️
Thank you for sharing. carla ohio
Love you all!
I know with our church bus the church men built an area in the back of the bus to secure the kids equipment in place for travel so they don't have it in or under their seats. A much more comfortable trip for everyone. Not sure what your options are. Works for traveling for any sports events & church camp trips.
As far as the barn goes maybe meet with them to see what loop holes there might be & what exactly did they look for.
Floor (cemented).
Sides enclosed?
Used for?
Just so you know more for another occasion. Knowledge is key! Gives you wisdom. That way if you have options you may be able to honestly do something.
Ranger seems to excel at all sports he attempts. I love how supportive you & Cassie are with all your children. ❤❤❤
I think it’s ridiculous to have to pay taxes on stuff you own. The new baby is adorable. Take care and stay healthy. God bless
Gary,
I had to protest a tax increase in Cherokee County. The ladies at the Assessors office walked me through the process. If I remember correctly, I just had to write a letter explaining why there shouldn't have been an increase. I think you're in Mayes County and I'd think they'd do the same thing. My protest was successful so, I think it's always worth trying. The worst outcome is them saying no. You might be surprised though. Your increase sounds a little excessive but it probably depends on when the last one was. God Bless!
I’m going to look at comparable properties
As I have gotten older, I have learned that it is not worth it to get angry about taxes. Puts your blood pressure up and you have no power to change anything anyway. Try to focus on something more positive. In this case, your farm is worth more if you sell it. In practice of course, this is a skill that needs practice. And when my property burned down last summer, I was not
thinking positively at all. However, six months later, I now realize that the fact that the property is worth a lot less means I will be paying less taxes. See? Life has bumps but it all
works out in the end.
