THIS ASSESSMENT REDUCTION FILING SERVICE IS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH ANY GOVERNMENT AGENCY. IF YOU DISAGREE WITH THE ASSESSED VALUE OF YOUR PROPERTY, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO AN INFORMAL ASSESSMENT REVIEW, AT NO COST, BY CONTACTING THE ASSESSOR’S OFFICE DIRECTLY. IF YOU AND THE ASSESSOR CANNOT AGREE TO THE VALUE OF THE PROPERTY OR IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO CONTACT THE ASSESSOR YOU CAN OBTAIN AND FILE AN APPLICATION FOR CHANGED ASSESSMENT WITH THE COUNTY BOARD OF EQUALIZATION OR ASSESSMENT APPEALS BOARD ON YOUR OWN BEHALF. AN APPEALS BOARD HAS THE AUTHORITY TO RAISE PROPERTY VALUES (BUT IN NO CASE HIGHER THAN THE PROPOSITION 13 PROTECTED VALUE) AS WELL AS TO LOWER PROPERTY VALUES.

Methodology

Valuvia uses available evidence to produce a preliminary assessment review—not a licensed appraisal.

Inputs

County assessment and property records.
Available commercial transaction and comparable-sale data.
Owner-provided assessment, property, condition, and document information.

Review

The assessed value is compared with qualifying sales near the relevant valuation date. Weak, inconsistent, or unavailable evidence is flagged for review instead of being treated as a reliable result. Important facts must be checked against official records.

Document checks

The county form is reviewed before release for owner filing. After verified filing and payment, the remaining package is checked for supported sales, calculation consistency, missing information, and product-appropriate documents.

Limits

Estimates may be incomplete or wrong and do not guarantee a reduction or savings. Valuvia does not provide legal or tax advice.
