You need to call your local assessor to see what the process to appeal your taxes is. Do it today. Most municipalities have a deadline that you must file the appeal by or you have to wait for the next appeal period and pay the higher tax amount for the year. You will need you appraisal from your purchase and possibly another CMA or appraisal when you go to appeal to prove your case that your house should be assessed lower. If you are prepared, you can win, but you need your comps and appraisals ready to go. Call the assessor in your area and find out what the appeal process is.
