If you bought in ’04, ’05, or ’06…

[quote=TuVu]A friend bought a home right at the peak and paid more than $650K. She and her husband also applied for reassesment and said on the form that they thought the house was now worth $400K. I was amazed when she told me the assessor agreed to exactly that amount.[/quote]

That’s 38% off the peak. I’m kind of curious. Which area is it ?

TuVu: your friend’s experience, and mine, suggest that the Tax Assessor is so overwhelmed with appeals that they are granting them readily.
Anyone else here get that quick an acceptance on their appeal?

She’s in far west Clairemont. I am thinking along Econ Prof’s lines, however…the assessor’s office may be so overwhelmed they’re just giving the people who apply whatever they are asking for, within reason. I wish we had asked for an even greater reduction :). On the other hand, to be honest, I think our new assessment is pretty darn close to what our house is worth. But we’ll see what’s happening with prices next spring…I believe you have to reapply every year.
