If you are selling a home and want top dollar the more you repair the better your home will present itself. If you have living space over your garage many towns require the sheetrock to be in good order taped and spackled.

It sounds like to are buying a "portable" building. Meaning it not attached to a foundation rather a pad or just sitting on the ground. Sheds sold at Home Depot and Lowe's are taxable as would be a Morton Building or pole barn. Property taxes are based on the size of the building and what you are adding to it. Electric, water, heat, ac etc will all contribute to the value the town places on the building.
