Most Orange County CA homeowners paid their property tax installments as of December 12, 2011.

Some people are not happy with their current assessed values, because distressed homes on the market selling and foreclosures have driven their property market value down. 

Current market value for a home and property is important for the Orange County CA Assessor’s office to consider when determining and assessing value – for property tax purposes – and considering your appeal from property assessment.

See information from the Orange County Assessor's office at its website where you can get information on how to appeal and request a lowered assessed value.
