When assessments go down only 3 things can happen. Either services are cut, millage goes up, or a combinatio of the two.

John - I totally agree with you. We, homeowners, want our communities to be decently cared and thus we pay our taxes.

However 2006 assessment in Cuyahoga County in many cases was unreasonably based on artificially inflated property value. Fraudulent activity of few groups of people who "sold" properties for inflated prices to "straw" buyers, also contributed to increased property taxes. If this is the case, that would be reasonable for home owners to contest the property value and request update on property taxes based on TRUE sales.

Svetlana: What a great service you are providing to your clients, friends and the general public. Helping them with lowering their property tax assessments will win you a gold star with each and every one of them. I am sure they will remember you when they have real estate needs in the future. Great job !

Karen Anne - so many people are confused with situation when property value is going down while property taxes are going up. If there is any mistake or wrong valuation, homeowners have a right to contest it. I am very glad that we can offer our assistance to the public in this important Real Estate matter.
