Question. Does one need to apply for a reassessment in order for SD Treasurer to do something? The reason why I ask is that I haven't applied for a reassessment and yet today i get a mail stating that they have reassessed the current value and are reducing it.. just curious if this happened to anyone else.

I got a letter saying prices are unchanged in my area (Scripps). Yeh!!! Hence they would not raise assessed value.

I have a rental SFR in 92105 that has been reassessed. It was reassessed last year and has been reassessed again this year. The reassessment this year is more accurate.

Just a word of warning - I got a letter that looked VERY official that said I was being reassessed and stated what the new value was.

It was bogus. My big clue is that I've got obscenely low, prop 13 locked in, tax rates - so I'm not a good candidate for reassessment.

Seriously - though - this letter looked very official and governmenty... but in reading the very small (microscopic) print - they were looking for $$ - but it was written as if the $$ they asked for were for the Dec tax payment.

Read those letters carefully and do not send any checks. Pay directly to the county treasurer.

I hear ya. This was official because the $240k reassess was exactly what my fiancee put of her form asking to reassess. She put a super low number thinking they would meet in the middle but they agreed to it! Go figure..

We bought in 2007 -- family deal, so bought under market, such as it was back then. Asked for a reassessment in 2008. Suggested what we thought the place was worth, and San Diego County agreed. Did not reapply this year, but the County recently reassessed it at another $25,000 less. Fine with us! We're not selling unless there is a personal catastrophe. Plan to die here unless evil children put us in a nursing home :)
