While it's true that the city raised land values, the accessed value can only be disputed for the "total" assessed value. You can contest the value by comparables of recent sales of similar properties or an appraisal of your property. If, as an example, you did a recent refinance, put that appraisal to work if it's a variance from the city 100% assessment. I'm not a real estate professional, but that's the advice from another city assessor in a different community. Hi Diane!
