Evidence to review

• Audit the Assessor's class and building characteristics before relying on the record as the foundation for an appeal.
• When similar subdivision houses are available, compare their original floor plans as well as additions, finished space, and present condition.
• Use recorded sales from the same assessment neighborhood and explain any meaningful difference in lot area or accessory structures.
• Date photographs of defects or deferred work and identify where each pictured condition appears on the property.

To check property facts on the county map, follow our CookViewer property comparison walkthrough. Keep assessment values separate from recorded sale prices.
