I’ve heard from so many homeowners say that they’re overpaying in property taxes and the Assessor doesn’t care! Taxpayers feel the injustice everywhere because they know their assessed values are higher than their current market values. Often when dealing with the Assessor and asking for help it appears that none is offered because of the nature of the issue. The first thing for every homeowner to understand is that the assistance the Assessor can offer is limited and with this real estate market right now they are inundated with frustrated homeowners. During this economy, during this real estate market everyone has gotten slammed with bad news and everyone is tightening up and lashing out where they can, given the general atmosphere today.

So, all of you homeowners out there, take a deep breath because the good news is that you can do something about lowering your property taxes. The key to making sure you are not overpaying property taxes, the key to lowering your property taxes as much as possible is knowledge. When you understand the critical and relevant information you need to lower your assessment and ultimately your property taxes you will make sure that based on your state law you aren’t over paying a dime!

The Assessor doesn’t care and NOT because they don’t want to, but since the Assessor’s Office is overwhelmed with work and overwhelmed with angry, frustrated, yelling taxpayers. The Assessor’s Office doesn’t have the funding to pay for enough man power to care. Don’t take it personally, it’s never personal and the Assessor is NOT out to get you. The Assessor will help you as much as they can, however with the work load they have there is not the time to deal with your emotions as well as break down the relevant laws, exemptions, statutes that pertain to your specific assessment. You need to be the one to take charge, because no one knows your home and your market value better than you do. The only knowledge you are missing to lower your property taxes is what data pertaining to your home is relevant specifically to lower your property taxes. If you have the knowledge necessary to lower your property taxes and you hand that information to the Assessor I’m confident your assessment will be lowered! When you take charge, you help yourself and you also help the Assessor help you! They key to lowering your property taxes is to understand the process and know what information you need to provide to the Assessor. The process is much simpler than you think.

I’ve heard from almost every person I have spoken to that homeowners do not want to touch their assessments with a ten foot pole. There is nothing to be afraid of. Property Tax law in every state, including California (where we like to make things complicated), is very simple. They key is understanding three aspects of your property taxes: property tax law, appraisal and assessment practice. Take it from me, someone who worked in all sides of the process and spent years being educated on it. It is simple. Property taxes and assessment is simple. The keys to lowering your property taxes are in your hand, time to place them in ignition, turn on the car and drive.
