MSRPO Member Survey

One of the most powerful tools we have is the truth, good solid information about seasonal property owners in Minnesota, and the effect of the state’s aggressive assessment and taxation policies. In an effort to keep our information fresh and current, we developed the following survey on property taxes on seasonal recreational properties [such as cabins and hunting shacks] in Minnesota. Will you please answer a few questions for us?

On a scale of 1-5, with five being the most important to you, please rank the following issues in importance to you as they relate to your cabin property.
