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.

I’m a bit confused but I’ll go to the SD County assessor’s website for answers. I thought you had to apply for a reassessment by May 30th. We did that and got a letter back agreeing to our request. It was exactly what what we asked for: 20 percent reduction. On the assessment request form, they ask you exactly what you think your house is worth (and comps, as you mentioned). 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=sdrealtor]I had a company on FC once.[/quote]
Me, too. Worked for and was laid off by a dot.bomb company in late 1999, two days before Christmas. My exit was pretty humiliating and that’s why I Googled and landed on FC. YES! That company was on there.

The FC forums…what a tough crowd. Anything went. Lots of unemployed tech guys. As a tech moron, I got a lot of free technical advice. But I was careful to “post as a dot” and not reveal that I am female. I occasionally commented about other topics and FC taught me how to have a thick skin on ANY message board.
