LIFER, where ya been all your life. If you don't agree with your assessment from the Assessor, you can appeal it. That is what Trump does...he appeals it and says it is worth less than the assessment. I have appealed in the past and won 1 and the value for taxes was reduced. I have also lost 1 appeal over the years.

Then, when he applies for a loan he argues the value is higher than what the bank appraiser states inorder to get a bigger loan. He will be indicted for arguing one to lower and one to raise........it's called fraud.

Before you post, check with me to avoid looking foolish.

Here, for the info of all lake dwellers from Tallapoosa, Elmore, and Coosa.........

TALLAPOOSA Any property owner who feels that the value on his/her property does not reflect fair market value may file a written appeal requesting a hearing before the Board. During the hearing before the board, the property owner may present any evidence that he feels justifies a change in the value of his property. As a result of the hearing the Board may either lower, raise, or leave the value the same. The owner will be notified by mail the results of the hearing. If after the hearing before the Board of Equalization the property owner is not satisfied, the property owner has thirty days to file an appeal with the Circuit Court. In order to preserve his right to carry the appeal process to Circuit Court, taxes must be paid by December 31, or a bond must be filed in the Circuit Clerks office in double the amount of taxes due.

ELMORE RIGHT TO REVIEW OR APPEAL: The Board of Equalization is not a full-time board in Elmore County. If you should desire an appointment with them, write a letter giving your name, address, phone number and parcel identification number. Your letter will be put in file and an appointment will be scheduled for you when the Board goes into session.  

COOSA If you feel your property value is incorrect you may file a written protest with the County Board of Equalization. Upon your appeal, if time permits, you will be contacted by the county appraiser to review your valuation. If, after this review, you are still not satisfied with your valuation, a hearing will be set for you to formally meet with the Board of Equalization to present information you feel justifies a change in value. Following this hearing you will be notified of the decision of the Board of Equalization. You may appeal to Circuit Court within 30 days of their decision. In order to preserve your right to carry the appeal process to Circuit Court, taxes must be paid by December 31, or a bond filed in Circuit Court in double the amount of taxes due.
