Can an assessor give me an honest evaluation, without creating a public record?

What I need is an honest evaluation of the property-for private use & evaluation. NOT public record. Can an assessor give me an honest evaluation, without creating a public record? We will be paying & we do not wish a public record...yet.?

I suggest hiring a professional appraiser. This person is able to provide a skillful, professional opinion of your property and you are not required to share the results with any other party. The result of this report may be similar to the value as stated by your local tax assessor, or it may be vastly different. It will depend upon many factors. However, most entities will accept the word of the professional appraiser over that of the local tax assessor.

  • If I sell my home, will my boyfriend receive part of the sale?

    I wanted some clarification before deciding to put my home on the market. My boyfriend and I purchased a home together several years ago. We split up so he signed a quitclaim deed but is obviously still on the loan. If I want to sell my home that I have been making payments on myself for the last 8 years. Does he need to sign anything and would he be entitled to any of the sale money?
