There are some similar properties in the area that are assessed for somewhere between 150-180k.

Tax assessed value is always way below 80% market value.

You've missed the Jan 15 deadline for this year, so you'll have to do it next year if you can't come to an agreement.Note that the assessed values and taxes don't go in lock step.

Nikki,It is true that you may have to go there as I have also researched most of the counties there and found that the all of the Counties do not have the Assessment data online.This is a long shot, but it MAY HELP: If you have the property addresses, goto googlemaps.com and plug in the address and see if there is anything that may help you.

Assessed values do not necessarily reflect its current value (after all, it's worth what somebody is willing to pay for it).

#2- visit your local tax assessment office or website and learn when will the next tax sale or foreclosure sale take place and you'll find buyers there.

Marcus, almost universally the tax assessments and the actual value of the property have nothing to do with one another.It is best to only use the comparables (similar property within 1/4 mile of the subject property and sales within the last 6 months) to evaluate the value and then make your offer price based on those comps and of course the cost of repairs, etc.Best of luck!

ARV/assessed is $125, homes in that region/neighborhood are comping out just a shade off of that.Newer listing so not much going.

This is almost 3% of the property assessed value ($125,000).

I have an offer in on a property for $175k on a home assessed for $237K, they owe $275k.
