Fighting my property tax

Should I fight my property tax this year???

Bought my home in July of 2018. Paid $245k. The county tax office is saying it’s worth $239k.

So would it be a good idea to fight my taxes if I over paid on what they think the property is worth?

@Hudson Walker you need to educate yourself on how property values are determined and taxed. It's very, very common for the tax-assessed value to be lower than market value. You can even call or visit your tax assessor's office and I'm sure they'll be happy to explain it to you.
