Every couple of years, the assessor’s office sends out a new valuation for your home. If that number looks suspiciously high, don’t just write the check - appeal it!
I have personally acted as a hearing officer for disputes between taxpayers and the assessor’s office. I’ve seen firsthand what works and what doesn't when it comes to lowering an assessment. If you think your home's "paper value" is higher than reality, give me a call. I can help you pull the right data to lower your assessment and, ultimately, your tax bill.
