Weird..I didn’t apply for a reassessment, but got it anyway.

[quote=UCGal]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.[/quote]

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 🙂
