I keep getting those mailings in the mail and started to look into it. I know I'm over assessed and I know I can do this myself or allow one of these companies to do it for me, but my question is about the assessors. I've read some stories where people try to get the property assessment redone and the assessor wants to enter the property for appraisal. The story that worries me had the homeowner refuse and the city just said then we'll assess you at the highest possible amount since we can't see inside. Is this a legitimate concern? I called one of the companies and they said that doesn't happen, they just do "desk assessment" and wouldn't be allowed to raise the assessment no matter what.
Thoughts? Thanks.
