<< if your house is worth more you should pay more in taxes. Makes sense to me. You know you're getting a break. I'll bet the assessed value is much less than the real value.>> My house is worth more now than the last time it was assessed. I will pay more in taxes. I'm not getting or even seeking any break. I do intend to press for a reduction in the assessment for reasons that you cannot possibly understand, any better than the tax assessor's appraiser can understand....until this appraiser accepts my invitation to visit my property and to study the comparable sales of homes around me which have undergone tens of thousands of dollars worth of improvements, upgrading and renovation in the past couple years, which I know about and the assessor does not. And, FYI, my first question to the appraiser would be whether he/she, as a prospective buyer, would pay the assessed value for the property I have to offer, if he/she could choose between my property and one of the 18 other properties which the assessor's office lists as comparable sales.
