As Realtors, we are in a great position to help out our clients with their property taxes in this “down market” we are experiencing. The assessments don't change this year, as this is an off year for assessing property values.
HOWEVER, it doesn't mean you do not have the right to protest your house value this year! With the crazy process of only using this "lagging timeline", you could only use comps that had sold from 1/1/06 to 4/1/07. Nothing after that date counts. But that is a new timeframe from last years assessment, and if the market got weaker within a years time, you may have a case that your home is worth less this year than last.
Hey, all we could do is save you thousands of dollars on your property taxes for 2008!
We have access to the solds, and can help you make a valid argument if you'd just ask us to help.
