Click here or above (it’s a link to another page on our website) where we have a “step-by-step” of how to view a tax bill on the Placer County website.

Mello-Roos should be detailed for the previous year on this bill*. Not sure what Mello-Roos is, watch the video above. On some natural hazard disclosures (NHD), it will list the Mello-Roos as well or if they’ll go up (not always**). New construction buyers, don’t be afraid to ask the tough questions on this topic too. Some NHDs will even state how long it will last, but this feedback from us is for entertainment value, See info above for disclosure**

It’s very easy now to look things up (2026) and much less complicated than when we first wrote this post back in 2012.

Being Prepared for the Appraiser

REALTOR Steve Ostrom talks with Appraiser Ryan Lundquist about the agent perspective and the appraiser perspective about an agent meeting the appraiser at the property, at the time of appraisal with paperwork on comparables (called comps) and giving insight to those comparables which may not be readily available on the internet or know because a home may not have been on the market that long.

Ryan also explains his thoughts, on the best approach, what to say and what not to do as an agent … it gives sellers a good perspective on what we do as listing agents, but also what we as agents, are dealing with when approaching an appraiser. Each appraiser is different and will have a different take on the listing agent meeting the appraiser to discuss comps …

Give us your thoughts? What do you think?

Thanks Ryan for your interview, as always! It’s always great to get another person’s perspective so we can stay fine tuned.
