The value of your house depends on who is looking.
Your house;
What a buyer sees;
What the bank loan officer sees;
What the insurance claims adjuster sees;
What the property tax assessor sees;

Well, they have to get money to pay for all the downtown improvement projects somehow. My neighbor and I have the only 2 houses in the neighborhood with property taxes under ten grand. But that changes next year when the two referendums take effect. They will raise the property tax 40%. To the millionaires in the area, that is pocket change. To Jerry and I, who are the only retirees left, that is a lot of money. For the house across the street, that just sold last month, that will be $32,200. I don't know what the new people are worth, but the ones that moved out, ( really nice people, by the way ), claimed to have total assets of about 25 million. ( he deals in commercial real estate. )
