ParticipantI have two appeals pending.
What’s important is the number you received upon filing your appeal. Call or go to the Assessor’s Office at the county admin. building to get a status update.
They are sooooo swamped, which may work in your favor. They have (I believe) two years in which to grant you an answer, a hearing, or simply cave and give you the value you asked for. Here’s betting a whole bunch of people will get timed out and simply get the value they demanded.
In one Florida jusisdiction with plummeting values, the time expired for the county to respond and they had to grant all the appeals by law. I think a similar situation will prevail here.
Homeowners, if you bought in the last few years, you should be documenting your current value and appealing your assessment. The potential savings are in the thousands. Get comps from actual sales that occurred 3 months before or after Jan 1, 2009. Other dates will not be considered relevant by the Assessor’s Office.ParticipantI have two appeals pending.

1. North Park has a military surplus-type store one block east of 30th St. on North Park Way (one block south of University Ave. They have surplus stuff from europe, including Russian, Soviet, and East Bloc militaries, so is kind of interesting to roam around in. Finding a US Marines hat is a long shot, but possible.
2. At the MCRD just east of the airport, access via Pacific Highway, there is a Marine museum that may sell stuff if they have a gift shop, and next door to the northeast is a big PX that also may have what you are looking for. You can get on base by simply telling the guardhouse personnel you are going to the museum, which is pretty worthwhile in its own right for us history buffs, and it is free.ParticipantTwo possibilities:

TD stands for Trust Deeds, AKA mortgages in most states. They are a promissory note secured (collateralized) by a trust deed, a claim on a property if the note is not paid.
Usually institutions like banks hold the first deed, and investors with an appetite for risk and high return can piggybank behind a 1st TD. The danger is that in the event of foreclosure, the 1st gets paid off first with the proceeds of the foreclosure sale, and the 2d TD gets any residual. Commonly, the 2d TD holder can protect his investment only by assuming the 1st TD loan or paying it off.ParticipantPardon the jargon.
