Just Unveiled: New Explanation of Cost Valuation Report for Thurston County Real Estate

Time and time again, as REALTORS, we hear the age old statement "But my property is assessed for $X".  While you might see this figure as good, or bad, our recently appointed Thurston County Assessor, Mr. Steven J. Drew, offered a detailed explanation of the work he and his team have accomplished since taking office January 2011.  To read his letter, click here.


You may have recently received a postcard from the Thurston County Assessor's Office with the upcoming tax year assessed value on your real estate.  I encourage you to read Mr. Drew's new Cost Valuation Report online.  To do so:

1. go to http://tcproperty.co.thurston.wa.us/propsql/front_s.asp and locate your property by parcel search or property address
2. once found, click on the parcel number at the right of the page
3. this page will take you to your property's home page with numerous tabs; the 5th tab on the second row is 'NEW! Cost Val Rpt' - please select this tab

I'm hopeful you'll find this information helpful.  One step further, should you be curious about how property taxes are determined in Thurston County, you'll want to click here.

And as always, contact Jim & Anya for all your real estate needs.
