Thank you,Francesca and Carey!
I didn't doubt John Rabi even for a moment.Not only because he is respected in this community. Just look at his website - fundamental.
We simply viewed the same object from the different angles.
I was not going to use the assessed value as a guide to action.But if there is no system in assessing,then a person who does it has enormous power to make the value of his friends' houses less and more for those who he(she) doesn't like.
What was trying to say in my previous post,that it should be some co-relation, system.
Just an example.Levi's jeans company used to make shrink-to fit jeans.They had "XX" on the tag(not to be confused with...)
Usually under the normal washing/drying they shrunk 2-3 inches in length.So if I need size 32/31 I should buy 32/33 or 32/34.The extreme temperatures of the dryer can result in up to 4 inches shrinking.
But that was it!
So it was no exact estimate,but using this knowledge,the customers were getting the right size.
Francesca,you said your house assessed value is less.I know some examples of that tendency too.
But here is a very interesting example.
The assessed value of the 30' yurt house in Kalapana Sea View I was trying to buy (no luck with a lender on "unconventional" structure)
was $49500 (MLS # 172003-sold after almost 2 years on the market).If this is less...
Did I just give the example that there is no system?
Anyway,in this case I want to be a friend of that assessor!
Does anyone knows when is his birthday?
