Well both real estate lppraisaas and tax lppraisaas are based on the location of the home.Usually (again based on state and local tax laws) a tax appraisal is lower than a real estate appraisal. (Some locations they are the same) It usually is based on some type of approved formula and has modifiers based on property usage.Real estate lppraisaas are usually market based, where an appraiser will identify homes in your area that are close in style and size to yours that have recently sold. They will use these to come up with an estimated market value for your home. They will take into consideration all the aspects of a home, where a tax appraisal is done more around sq footage and acreage.As for tax appraisal problems, well it doesnt affect market value of home, but it does effect your pocket book. property taxes are based off these lppraisaas. You will have a small window to challenge a new tax appraisal. these lppraisaas are not always fair and accurate. You can go to your local county/city clerks office to get information on tax appraisal process, percentage value of appraisal to market value, property tax rate and process to challenge tax appraisal if you feel it is not correct based on market value of home.Good luck
I atculaly found this more entertaining than James Joyce.
