Based on a National Taxpayers Union report, it estimates that local assessors have over-valued 60% of taxable properties in the United States. (ntu.org) As a result, the values used by the assessors are not in line with the current real estate market. This means that your property may have received an appraisal value that is considerably higher than other similar properties located in close proximity and may have resulted in an unfair property assessment for tax year 2010. As a property owner, you have the right to appeal your 2011 appraised value to ensure that it reflects fair market value based on current real estate market conditions.
