I'm all for protesting for the sake of protesting, but I can't think of any convincing argument in my favor. How can I protest this?
My understanding is desirability relates to the neighborhood more so than your house; could be wrong, hard to find info on it for sure. Assuming that is the case, we got boned. We're excellent, 2 immediate neighbors are fair, 2 other are good. We're on Ferndale, which should knock it down a couple pegs as it is so busy.Quote:
My biggest issue is that our Desirability is EXCELLENT, which is crazy for our home.
Hmm my buddy told me that the Desirability rating should apply to the entire city, not in comparison to the neighborhood. We probably are one of the best houses on our street, but not Excellent in comparison to the whole city. He flips houses and owns rentals (said he is protesting 33 houses!) so I assumed he knew what he was talking about. He also mentioned that going in for an informal review with black and white pictures was a good approach to take.Ol Jock 99 said:My understanding is desirability relates to the neighborhood more so than your house; could be wrong, hard to find info on it for sure.

Surely that's a typo. You mean $347k?BoilerAg10 said:

I don't know anyone that looks at DCAD value when selling or buying a home.Quote:
I mean yes, I want my house to appraise for a lot for when I go to sell it someday, but that is years away.

Yes, that's what it means. You won the lottery on this one.Quinn said:
Why haven't I received an email from DCAD, Copp? Does that mean I don't owe any property tax next year?
