HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH

FROM PAPAR: The recent real estate climate in our communities has come with both great benets and challenges with many of us aected in some way. Some have beneted as a seller with the higher housing costs vastly improving the equity in their home, and some, like me, have embraced our current homes as the home we will stay in longer than expected, so we are renovating our spaces more. Our annual Home Edition has news and topics no matter which end of the spectrum you are as a homeowner or renter. We hope you enjoy it. Papar Faircloth, GENERAL MANAGER

FROM JAKE: If you’re a homeowner, you’re likely no stranger to the rapid increase in property values happening across the state. The ination is leading to higher property tax bills for homeowners and local business owners, some of whom are being forced to sell their properties because they can’t aord their property tax bills. Read our front-page story to learn more about this problem and what legislators have done in attempts to address it. Jake Magee, SENIOR EDITOR
