i think my landlord is pulling a fast one with taxes on a house. from the outside it looks like a normal house. he has it divided up into 3 apartments. he pays all the utilities. i live in greensburg pennsylvania. i was wondering how i would go about seeing how the house is listed for tax purposes? he is a slum lord & i would like to see if he is up to anything as far as the house. any help would be greatly appreciated.

The value of the property will not change dramatically, whether it's a single family property or divided into three living units. Property tax is based upon current market value, or a percentage thereof.
If you live in this house, why would you want to do this ? If you cause the property taxes to go up, you can rest assured the additional cost to the landlord will reflect in your rent charges.

I think (not 100% sure though) that this should be public record. See your town clerk and explain your situation. They may also be able to refer you to the Housing Authority in your town or state.
