Challenge Your Assessment

• There are two parts to your tax bill
• Assessed value of your home Property and the
  actual tax rates
• While you can't do anything about the tax rates
  of local services such as schools, towns and ?re
  departments, you can contest your assessed
  value.
• Your home's assessed value isn't necessarily what
  it's worth on the open market.
• If they've recorded your home as having two full
  baths when you only have 1.5 baths, that will
  lower your home's value.

Appeal if your assessment is wrong
There can be a lot of debate on what constitutes
"MARKET VALUE." Your home may have some
signi?cant structural or maintenance issues or be
across from a factory. If you don't agree with
your assessment, then you have a right to appeal
on the country and state level. Keep in mind
that you need to compare your home to similar
homes in your area.
4
Check if you qualify for discounts
Most assessors give you a "Homestead Exemption"
just for living in your home. Veterans or senior
citizens also may get lower assessments. Check
with your county or local assessor to see what
discounts apply. If your assessment record
doesn't include them, then update your
assessment.
