The Sound Guy Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Got the 2013 assessment, went down a little less than 1%. OK, but since it went UP 17% last year, I was hoping for a better correction. Had it gone up again, I would have appealed, but 1% down is acceptable. Loan escrow should be reviewed next month, the 17% rise will be applied then. Not looking forward to it. Anybody have a major change in value? Link to post Share on other sites
HardwareDJ Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 I guess mine went down. We just bought the house last year and they set the value for this year at what we paid for it which is less then the previous value. Link to post Share on other sites
cranemec Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Once again, ours went down. Good for taxes, sucks for home resale value. But then again, we don't plan on selling for a long long time. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Coppertop's Pop Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Ours went down, and my taxes should be lower (unless our elected officials raise the millage rate, which they so often do). Link to post Share on other sites
Mama Carol Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Ours went up (in Cobb). Not by much but a little bit. Link to post Share on other sites
jennilyn77 Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Down $2000. Link to post Share on other sites
brown*eyed*girl Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 No significant change here. I was hoping for an increase so I could do a tax appeal. Worked on a few of them last year and found them informative. Didn't do any in Paulding County but with the counties I worked with I found the county appraisers were very reasonable and professional.

rockysmom Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Ours went up $600.00! Yea! I guess. Link to post Share on other sites
mei lan Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Down $1,500. And no, I'm not guessing my taxes will go down. Link to post Share on other sites
justgettingby Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Ours went up a bit...but taxes seem to be slightly down. Not going to complain though because the tax amount is less than a few months of car insurance. We have no mortgage and an INCREDIBLE tenant in the house so I cannot and would not ever fuss about that. Link to post Share on other sites
AcworthDad Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Mine stayed the same. It went down in 2011 and then again in 2012. My 2013 assessment is the same as it was in 2012. Link to post Share on other sites
Hooray Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 (edited) Ours went up over $12,000. Edited June 9, 2013 by ~lovapet~ Link to post Share on other sites
lucky64 Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Oh, is that what that paper was? lol..... I just saw numbers and handed it to my father. I didn't take the time to figure it out, I was heading out the door. He looked at it, and when I came home he didn't say anything, so I guess, I don't have anything to pay. lol Link to post Share on other sites
dubious Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 Mine (and several neighbors I have talked with) increased ~47% Link to post Share on other sites
JYD Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 Ours went down about 10% which is good on taxes but bad on resale. We don't plan on selling but it is bad for the area. Link to post Share on other sites
xxrsellars Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 Went down $700 in value from last year, however, that doesn't mean the tax will go down over last year. Link to post Share on other sites
its mr sarcastic to you Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 Ours went down about 10% which is good on taxes but bad on resale. We don't plan on selling but it is bad for the area. No one pays any attention to tax assessment values from a sales standpoint, they know they are wildly inaccurate.... Link to post Share on other sites
blondchevygrl Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 No one pays any attention to tax assessment values from a sales standpoint, they know they are wildly inaccurate.... True. When we bought our house last year, it appraised for $93,000. The tax assessment was about $31,000. When we got our assessment for this year, it was lower and I called hubby freaking out. He just laughed at me and said it doesn't have any impact on market value..LOL Link to post Share on other sites
jp184 Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 Ours increased again. Wouldn't have hurt my feelings if mine had decreased. We are at retiring age and don't intent to sell so we would be happy to see our taxes going down not up. Link to post Share on other sites
NinaBritt Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 Ours went up a couple hundred dollars. Link to post Share on other sites

GGinGA Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 Ours went up $30,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Freaked out. Link to post Share on other sites
blondchevygrl Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 One thing that has us confused is, weeks AFTER we got our assessment in the mail, a guy from the county came by. He knocked on the door and said he was doing measurements from the outside of the house for tax purposes. OK, that's fine and dandy, but WHY was the measurements taken AFTER I got the assessment? Does this mean it can change and I could get another assessment? Link to post Share on other sites
