This decision is based on our finding that:
The valuation placed on the property by the Assessor's Office is presumed to be correct, and can only be
overcome by the presentation of clear, cogent, and convincing evidence that the value is erroneous
[RCW84.40.030(l)].
The Board's goal is to acquire sufficient, accurate evidence to support a determination of true and fair value
for the purpose of uniformity and equalization of taxation within the county as defined by statute (RCW
84.40.030) and the Washington Administrative Code (WAC 458-12-301).
The appellant provided information indicating he paid $324,300 on August 31, 2013. The sale took place
without the services of a realtor and the appropriate realtor costs. No appraisal was presented.
The Assessor provided three comparable sales very close in proximity to the subject property indicating a
fair market value as of January 1,2013 of$385,010.
The Board looked very closely at the three comparables provided and accepted the assessor's indicated
value for the three comparables as a justification for the assessed value of$385,010 with the land value at
$214,750 and the improvements value at$170,260. The Board hereby sustains the value.
