Who says you can't fight...

Who says you can't fight city hall...er...the county assessor's office?!

Recently I argued that my home's assessment wasn't accurate. They'd increased it again, despite the fact that properties are selling for MUCH less in my area than when I bought. (Ugh.)

I decided to file a protest against that. I provided data about current sales and listing prices in my townhome development. And after checking my mail today, I found a letter that said, I'd won! Woohoo! I dropped my assessment $10K.

While it sucks that I can't sell near for the price where I bought this "lovely" place. At least I don't have to pay completely unrealistic property taxes.

And here's hoping the prices rebound....
