Do You Want To Challenge Your New Property Tax Valuation?

Many of us have seen dramatic increases in our county tax bills just released in 2009, because of increases in property valuations as well as increases in tax rates.
While some county tax assessment value increases are expected, I've heard of many that appear out of line.
I just found out about a free property tax reduction seminar and the information is listed below:
COAST attorneys have been holding a series of free property tax reduction seminars to train homeowners and commercial property owners how they can successfully challenge their property tax valuations reflected on their January 2009 bills from the County Treasurer. Those seminars were each completely "sold out," with more than 60 persons attending each class. As a result, four new, free classes have been added, and they are filling up quickly as well.

Depending on which county you live in, it's important to not let your challenge time expire. Go to your county web site to find out within what time frame you can challenge property valuation. Here are the county auditor web sites:
I hope this gives you some direction in what steps to take to challenge your valuation.
