The process can be long and arduous, but if you have a legitimate case and deal with the SF city bureaucratic, it is worth the time and effort I had a client who bought and closed on condo in August 2008, the very bottom of the market. Over time, with comps I supplied him, he followed the process and followed up with the city and eventually got his property tax assessment lowered.

Im an alternate on the assessment appeals board for Ventura County. Feel free to contact me with any specific questions.
In general, you want to have your value supported with comps, an expert witness (Realtor or appraiser), and hold tight to that. Make your explanation of why your value - which is going to be lower than the countys - is better and more accurate than theirs.....
Good luck !
