Steve,
If I figured correctly my property tax was about 1.25% of market value. This will change slightly depending upon the extra assesments for the area of residence.
Income tax top bracket is 9%. You can see the brackets at this web link:
Tax Form
notice that Federal Tax is deductible on Oregon tax forms.
No Sales Tax in Oregon.
State of Washington does have Sales Tax (not sure of rates) but does not have Income Tax. Not sure of property tax rates either. Maybe you could find on State web sites?
Your dream would be real with that developement I mentioned with regards to view. It is not on beach front but on the mountains above Ilwaco, WA (5 minutes away) about 700 feet elevation. Location is directly west of the red star marking Ilwaco, in the middle of the land right above Ft. Canby Park.

I will check to see about information for you.
