What happens if you think you should have your assessment reduced, but the tax assessor disagrees? You can still file a formal appeal with the clerk of the board of supervisors up until September 15.Your chances are about 50/50 of being granted a reduction, anyway. Last year, only half of the 8000 taxpayer requests were granted.
Since your tax is about 1.2 percent of assessed value, a reduction of $170,000 would bring an average reduction of over $2000...worth fighting for, even if the savings may not continue into next year.
