[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in east county and the county thinks the value of my home has gone up. A similar house in the neighborhood sat for over 2 months before selling way below the assessed value. I bought this house 14 years ago for $500k and my taxes were under $5k. Today they say my house will selll at 900k and my taxes are almost 11k. The recent sale in my neighborhood sold for $695 but was assessed at $810k. County just making shit up.[/quote] 1. The state assesses your property values, not the county. 2. If you think the assessment is wrong, you can appeal.[/quote] +1 there is an appeal process. We are going to appeal as there are numerous comparables and there's no basis for our ridiculous assessment, which is significantly higher than those of the identical houses next door. But it's the state making it up, not the county.[/quote]
