This decision is based on our finding that:
The Appellant was not present. The Assessor' s office was represented by IdaMae Jensen and Joshua Green.
The Board reviewed the information submitted by the Appellant, including the petition and the sales
comparison worksheet. The Appellant submitted four comparable sales with a date ranging from August
2017 to June 2018 . The 2018 date of sale occurred after the assessment date of January 2018 . The Board did
not consider this sale. In addition, two of the comparable sales were located outside of Mason county. The
Board also did not consider these sales.
The Assessor representative' s testified they had recently inspected the interior of the property and found the
condition was somewhat dated. In addition, the Assessor testified that a portion of the waterfront was less
than prime waterfront and adjusted the value accordingly.
The Assessor submitted an assessment roll correction of $539, 885 for the land and $481 ,225 for the
improvements, for a total of $ 1 ,021 , 110 for the subject property.
The Board found the Appellant did not provide a preponderance of evidence to overrule the Assessor' s
adjusted valuation .
Therefore, the Board overrules the original valuation of $ 1 ,344 ,905 and sets the value of the subject
property at $ 539, 885 for the land and $481 ,225 for the improvements, for a total of $ 1 ,021 , 110 for the
subject property.

This decision is based on our finding that:
The Appellants, Michael and Shelley Glaser were present. The Assessor' s office was represented by
IdaMae Jensen and Joshua Green,
The Appellants testified that the estimated value of the land should be $ 125 , 000, the home, shop and ADU
should be valued at $425 ,000 for a total of $ 550,000 . To support the estimate of value the Appellant
provided one comparable sale dated May 31 , 2018 . The Appellant also testified that the home needed
maintenance and repair. The home was built in 1982 . The Appellant testified that the septic system is
failing, the deck is deteriorating and the roof needed repairs .
The Assessor testified that there were two homes on the property. One, a permanent residence and the other
an ADU. The Assessor noted that the residence' s foundation did appear to need repair, as well as the
garage, the carport and septic system. Due to these conditions the Assessor testified that the quality of the
garage and the carport were downgraded half a grade. Additionally, a 25 % depreciation was given to reflect
the condition of the roof. The deck was depreciated 80% to reflect its condition.
The Assessor provided six comparable sales with a value range of $ 847, 506 to $942,400. The Assessor ' s
recommended value for the subject property fell below this range at $733 ,665 .
The Board found the Appellant did not provide a preponderance of evidence to overrule the Assessor' s
reduced valuation.
Therefore, the Board overrules the original valuation of $780,775 and sets the value for the subject property
for the land at $247 , 810 , the improvements at $485 , 855 for a total of $ 733 , 665 .
