Risk Management

Bob has 30 years of real-world experience in investment banking and finance and understands the actual value of your dollars. Mortgage rates, finance rates, fluctuating commodity prices, and the value of your home- markets can go up and down. Property values result from market conditions- something we cannot control but can affect our budget greatly when the time comes to pay the treasurer our taxes at the end of the year. That is one big reason why having an Assessor dedicated to data-driven, statistically verified, fair and accurate values is so important. Bob is a man of integrity who ensures that the same rules apply to everyone and no one pays more than their fair share of taxes.
