You should have received your tax valuation in the mail from your county assessor’s office this week. Please know that you have the right to protest your real property value or its classification. The deadline to protest is June 1, 2011. As a complimentary service to my clients, I am happy to discuss your valuation and help you understand how to protest the valuation if you feel the value is too high. With this service, I will also provide you the best comparable sales that support your position. According to state law the valuation period must end on June 30, 2010. Please note, though, that some counties use different starting dates for the sales data used (see below).
