Great deals are lying around everywhere just waiting to be found. 

Seems to me the logical starting point would be the county tax assessor's office. 1977 probably means searching microfiche in person.The tax appraisal would probably be lower than the actual market value at the time, which would increase your gain on the sale.If your county follows a % less than fair market value for the tax value, that would probably zero you in on a higher received cost.

Its not so much that she has chickens, its that she lied.

How much luck have any of you had negotiating with an assessor's office to re-evaluate the taxable value of a rental property?

I actually gave a ring to the county tax assessors about the appraised value.

I talked to her boss and her doctor, it was all lies.

So I'm new and trying to analyze a property and determine its property taxes using our county tax assessors page. 

but it really just confuses the issue for most and especially all of us that have been in the HML trench's  it took a few years for all this to flush out as the company would say the 3k is not mandatory.. then others who call their closers say it is.. so who knows where the truth lies. but i think if we can believe a few posters they actually got funding.. 

@Jack D Falkner I use the tax assessor website.

It is really just up to you as to what path you'd lie to pursue.
