THATS a good one ! .. many of those assessors are ASSES ....

Their job is to REVENUE ENHANCE for the government....

And I have not heard of ONE OF THEM that is truly responsible for their actions.





I actually have good relationships with the tax people. None of them have been asses to me. Maybe because I’m not an ass to them. That’s a novel thought I bet you may not have even thought of, Doc. I talk to them every year about my property values, make my case and usually get better taxes. It’s better to deal with an individual who likes you than the appraisal revue board that is hard to deal with five people.


I guess then that settles it.

I personally try not to let my own experiences be the single foundation of the way I see the entire world, and one of things I have learned here, that view is not widely shared. work grin

Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
