How can they tax me more than what I paid for the property? Is that legal? The properties in the area which I bought  are valued at  approximately $589K, But my property was in bad shape and it needed a lot of work. How do i present my case to the County assessor? Should I show the assessor photos illustrating the condition it was in when i Bought the property?
