Valuvia policies

Service Disclaimer

This disclaimer is part of the Terms of Service.

  • Valuvia is independent and is not associated with a government agency or county assessor.
  • Valuvia does not provide legal or tax advice. Output is not a licensed appraisal and is not legal-document-assistant work.
  • Valuvia prepares owner-filed materials but does not sign, file, mail, negotiate, appear, or represent you.
  • You must verify the documents, use current county instructions, meet deadlines, pay county charges, and keep paying property taxes when due.
  • Estimates and comparable-sales analysis depend on available data and customer information. They may be incomplete or wrong and do not guarantee savings or a reduction.
  • A county may reduce, leave unchanged, or—subject to California law and Proposition 13 limits—raise an assessed value. Estimated savings are not guaranteed. Formal Appeal fee refunds (if any) follow the six-month evidence rule in the Refund Policy. The Prop. 8 Informal Request Package is free of charge, so no fee refund applies to its result.

Paid Valuvia review packages are currently available for eligible residential properties in Riverside, Los Angeles, and San Diego Counties, California.
