I won my fight against King County Tax Assessors
Saturday I opened my mail to find a letter from the King County Tax Assessors office. In fear, I tore into the envelope readying myself for a hearing date regarding my 2009 property valuation. To my surprise however, I found myself reading a letter attached to my new valuation (should I agree to it!) The new valuation was same amount that I had suggested on my petition. After doing a short victory dance in my kitchen, I quickly signed the form and sent it off in the mail. What I thought would take months - took about 6 weeks! Yahoo! Now my taxes will stay the same - for a least one more year. I guess hard work does pay off.
Good luck to rest of you who are in the same fight! I hope that your results are the same!

Lisa,
How far did you have to take it? All the way to the State Board? We are now awaiting our hearing on Apr. 28. Our land values went up a whopping 260%
Tell me your situation and can you give me any pointers?
Thanks,
Pat
