Please Explain Your Answer to this Appeal:

Assessment of subject property is based on standard annual review of township parcels using the common valuation process of cost less depreciation. Petitioner 

purchased this property in May 2022 for $425,000 and has appealed his valuation to the March Board of Review each year since. Tribunal reduced the assessed 

value for 2025 to $210,000. 

Attached to this response is the subject record card, a spreadsheet used to establish the ECF, a map showing the location of 3 parcels in the subject area and land 

table, 2026 form L-4400, the deed that created the 50% uncapping event, and the email I sent Petitioner requesting clarification in an effort to avoid uncapping. I 

received no response or Property Transfer Affidavit.
