Went to the mailbox today to get yesterdays mail and I had a letter from our local county tax accessor. We got our assement about a month ago and from the year prior there was a 7% reduction due to falling property values. Well duh this was no suprise to me that the price had fallen on homes. We bought this house as a forclosure that we picked up at about 58 cents on the dollar from the market high.
So I decided I would appeal as we are not going anywhere. I just used the info that the county was providing on their site did a little square footage cost and market comps sold. Got the notice today and they concurred. Another 18% reduction for a total of a 25% reduction of what we are currently paying.
Translation- Less expenses per month as I move into ER!
Of course I will need this money to align the front end on my cars due to all the potholes the county can't fill because they have no money
