And what will the property taxes be?

I.e., just how bad and long-lasting will all the pension shit be vis a vis nice places in trendy neighborhoods but not mega-rich

Nobody really knows, but if the city is really going to try to dig out of its hole and pay all the owed pensions, the only plausible path I see is MASSIVE property tax increases. They can't really increase other taxes too much more or people will just leave.

Is it a primary residence or investment property?

Assessments keep on going up, and you just need to challenge them. It's about as Chicago as deep-dish pizza. There's always talk about improper assessments and how it helps Madigan and the others stay in business given their firms do tax appeals.

Now, the public pension crisis. lol. It's all fucked up. I guess they can unsuccessfully try alternative taxes, like the soda tax. But, I mean, how much does that get you compared to property hikes?

The soda tax made no sense since the people who buy all the soda use SNAP and can't be taxed. But realistically, there are only 2 paths forward on the pension crisis:

(1) figure out a way to default on or retroactively adjust pension liabilities.

(2) tax the living shit out of all property owners.

Yea, a federal prohibition or restriction.

I hope they default on it, but does the constitutional guarantee (or whatever it's call) apply to only state pensions or does it also apply to municipalities?

If you're looking for a great return, put that money in the market, not a $700k property....especially not a non-income generating property.
