Live in Lincoln. Year after year of massive valuations. 2 years ago I think they increased me like 27% of original purchase value. And got some crock about how they were trying to price in multiple years at once, so future increases were less.......well last year was double digits......this year is 17% increase. It's insane. City is run like a ****ing shit hole....(you all know exactly what I am saying).
I spoke to a realtor last year, just in passing, and she told me that if I thought I could sell my house for that valuation or more, then there isn't much I can do, because if they did an appeal, they'd just come to the same conclusion......Is this true? Does anyone have any experience with alternative options or the appeal process?
Because I'd say the valuation is close, to what I'd get for my home, but if I got less I know the county isn't going to refund me......and its one thing to eat it the last few years when the market is wild and you're gonna get whatever you ask for it, but now that properties are sitting longer, I dont think Mayor hyphenated last name from CA needs to be telling what my property is worth based on some mythical evaluation calculation.
