I was playing around on the OC gov's tax site athttp://ocgov.com/octaxmaprecently. I noticed that two homes in my neighborhood that sold recently for a higher price then what we had paid for our homes more than 10 years ago had lower assessed value then our home. The square footage for the other 2 homes is about 100 sq feet less than ours.
I was under the impression that the assessed value was impacted by the sale price. Is that not the case?
Also, one of the homes is still not showing up as sold on Redfin. However Zillow is showing it as sold. The other home is showing up as sold both on Redfin and Zillow. I never saw a for-sale sign on either of these homes. The owners did move out of both homes and new owners (renters?) did move in. Wonder if this was a family-to-family sale that doesn't show up on the tax records.
