overcome by the presentation of clear, cogent, and convincing evidence that the value is erroneous
[RCW84 .40 . 030( 1 )] .
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, Toby Mann, was not present at the hearing. The Assessor was represented by IdaMae
Jensen. Assessor Patti McLean was present at the hearing.
The Board reviewed all the information submitted by the Appellant, including the petition and supporting
documents .
The Appellant based his estimate on a refinance offer from his current mortgage holder. The Appellant did
not submit an appraisal to support this estimated value of $265 ,378 .
The Assessor indicated that the current value of the property was based upon the appreciation of 8 . 5% for
2016 and 10. 15% for 2017, which supported the subject value of $273 , 105 as of 1 / 1 /2018 .
The Board found no clear, cogent or convincing evidence that the Assessor' s valuation was in error.
Therefore, the Board sustains the total value at $273 , 105 for the subject property ; $ 38 , 120 for the land and
$234,985 for the improvements.

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 45812-301 ) .
Those in attendance at the hearing on February 5 , 2018 : Alan Duback, Property Owner; IdaMae Jensen,
Assessor' s Representative and Mason County Assessor Patti McLean .
The Appellant provided an analysis of properties that had sold since 2016 which showed the assessed value
vs . the sales price of these properties .
The Appellant testified that the value of the subject property increased by 40% between assessment year
2016 and 2018 ; however, the Assessor' s representative testified that the 40% was misleading as it included
an increase of 18 % in 2018 , which was essentially a deduction.
The Assessor originally valued the property at $662,780 . However, an Assessment Roll Correction in 2017
valued the property at $ 550, 885 . The Assessor also testified that Mason County property values increased
by 10 . 15 % between 2017 and 2018 . Therefore the Board determined that the 2018 value should be 10 . 15 %
more than the Assessment Roll Correction of 2017 and established the true and fair market value of the
property at $ 195 ,951 for the land and improvements at $410, 848 for a total value of $606 ,799 .
The Board overruled the original assessed value for 2018 and sets the total value at $ 606,799 for the subject
property.
