Update estimated monthly tax pmt to reflect new sales price, not an old one.
Have the monthly pmt widget show an accurate monthly tax pmt at the new offer price, not the old selling price. Often times homes that sold 20 years ago have a tax basis 5 to 10 X less than current market values. This means that the widget shows a tax payment which is incredibly low and inaccurate.
Example: A home is on the market for $1.3M yet the widget shows a monthly tax pmt of $91/mo, based on a 1995 selling price of $135k.
The correct estimated tax pmt should be ~1% of the $1.3M price, which is $1,083/mo.
