Tax values up 3% for homes in S.L. County
8 comments | Read story
I know that in 18 years, no one from the county has ever wanted to look at my home to do an assessment, yet my property taxes have gone up every year.
I also have watched the price of comparable homes in my area drop over and over again until they sold for less than the balance of the mortgage.
It is my opinion that the county only wants more money to spend on things that may or may not be of value to the community.
goes to show how stupid the assessing of property is in this state ... and how NOT in the moment the assessors in the various counties are NOT
acquisition based taxing (calif's prop13) is the ONLY way to go in this state ...
i mean come on .. a senators son gets a job funded by the senator ... assessors say the property is up when reality shows the property values are down ... this state needs some BIG attitude and function adjustments ..
remember incumbents out .. challengers in
i suggest assessor's get with the times and lower property values to be in step with the actual lower price of the selling and buying of homes in their counties
step outside mister assessor and see the prices falling
Assessment should drop at least 10%.
