Property Owner: Betty Fulwiler
Parcel Number(s): 12108-12-00070
Assessment Year: 2018 Petition Number: 55.2019
Having considered the evidence presented by the parties in this appeal, the Board hereby:
® sustains ❑ overrules the determination of the assessor.
Assessor's True and Fair Value BOF Time and Fair Value Determination
® Land $ 230,875 ® Land $ 230,875
® Improvements $ 281,905 _ ❑ Improvements $ 281,905
❑ Minerals $ ❑ Minerals $
❑ Personal Property $ ❑ Personal Property $
TOTAL $ 512,780 TOTAL $ 512,780
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(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, Betty Fulwiler, did not attend the hearing. IdaMae Jensen, Assessor's Representative was
present at the hearing on March 19, 2019.
The Board reviewed the Appellant's petition and noted that the Appellant requested the assessed value be
set at $230,000 for the land and $250,000 for the improvements for a total of$480,000. However,the
Appellant provided no evidence to support their estimate of value or that the Assessor's valuation was in
error.
The Assessor provided five comparable sales supporting the assessed value with the range of$533,421 to
$660,628. The subject parcel's assessed value of$512,780 falls below this range.
Therefore, the Board supports the Assessor's valuation of$512,780: $230,875 for the land and $281,905
for the improvements for the subject property.
