General Note:
Variables to consider when projecting conveyance tax revenue include: trends in home prices,
trends in the volume of home sales, and each towns' unique market characteristics. Given the volatility of
these variables, actual FY 05-06 information is the best measure available to approximate
town-by-town losses going forward.
