Did anyone else place an appeal with the tax board of review?
We’re heading in on Aug. 4th for our hearing.
We did both the complaint with the assessor’s office and an appeal with the tax board of review.
I really thought it was funny that the assessor’s office removed the complaint form from their web site but left up the $15 fee based appeals form.
Assessments on both our Snohomish and King County properties were sharply dropped this year in Washington State without request. I was amazed to see that Hawaii County wasn’t reducing Tax assessments this year... CRAZY! Is there a brain dead assessor up there? If the county ends up in court over enough key cases; they could end up paying back millions and become bankrupt over night. Where’s this ludicrous thinking come from on behalf of the Assessors office in Hawaii County? The appeals board is not the last stop if they fail to follow reason, the courts will.
Bet they gambled we wouldn’t be appearing as we’re out of State… surprise, surprise!
E ho'a'o no i pau kuhihewa.
