Mixed feelings: Getting the "We think your house is worth $40k less than last year" letter from the Sonoma County tax office.

We just put a metal roof on, and are finally fixing the rotten siding and painting various things. I expect the assessors office will swing by just as everything looks extra spiffy.

Spiffy: One of the many words in a splendid book that Nancy bought be titles "Words real men should not use"

Splendid: Double points in one post.

I actually got a small increase in my this year taxes from Boulder County. Their cut-off date for comps was almost a year prior and just happened to occur one week before the foreclosure three doors down finally sold after three years on the market. That house sold for $179K when every comp used in the evaluation sold for over $220K.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
