This static example shows the homeowner-facing report in full: the verdict and what it is worth up front, the comparables that carry the case and where they sit, how the value was reached, every sale considered, and the deadlines you file against.
Four homes near yours sold between September and December 2025. Adjusted to compare with your home, all four point to values between $1,310,000 and $1,365,000, well below the county's $1,480,000.

Why each one made the cut
1
2148 Marlowe Crossing. Closest to your home on bedrooms and bathrooms: the same 4-bedroom count and the same 2.5-bath count. The largest gap is year built: it was built two years earlier (1966 vs your 1968).
2
1877 Kestrel Row. Closest to your home on bedrooms and bathrooms: the same 4-bedroom count and the same 2.5-bath count. The largest gap is distance: it sits 0.4 mi from your home.
3
1560 Vireo Court. Closest to your home on sale date and distance: sold three months before the lien date and 0.5 mi away. The largest gap is bedrooms: one bedroom fewer (3 vs your 4). Compared with its own sale price, it carries the largest correction of the set.
4
2412 Bramblewood Court. Closest to your home on living area and lot size: within 64 sqft of yours (1,796 vs your 1,860 sqft) and a similar lot (5,950 vs your 6,350 sqft). The largest gap is bedrooms: one bedroom fewer (3 vs your 4).

How we estimated your home’s value
Where a sale differs from your home, we adjust its price to match: up where the sale is worse than yours, down where it is better.
1Sale date: We update comp prices for how the market moved between each sale and Jan 1, 2026, so sales our data covers are compared on the same footing.
2Size: If a comp is bigger or smaller than your home, we adjust its price for the difference in living space.
3Bedrooms and baths: Matching your bedroom and bathroom counts helps a comp rank higher on our list.
4Outlier detection: We rule out sales that look like outliers, so one odd transaction does not skew the evidence.
5The final number: The comps most similar to your home count the most, and we blend those top comps into your final value.
Every adjustment, comp by comp

Too different from your home to adjust reliably
How we searched
12 sale records examinedThe final search looked within 1.1 miles of your home, at sales between Apr 1, 2025 and Mar 31, 2026, the comparable window California law allows for this tax year. The search widened through same neighborhood and same census tract to gather enough evidence. Every record any search in this run returned, 12 in all, appears in the census below.
2 not in the final comparison poolThese records were not part of the pool the analysis ran on: “Renovated before resale” (1); “Sale date not confirmed inside the legal window” (1). The screens cut against your case as often as for it, and every one of these records is listed in the census with its reason.
4 matches kept10 records were scored on living area, lot size, age, beds and baths, distance, and sale recency; the rest that went unused are listed as: “Set aside: after adjustment it does not agree with the sales the value already rested on” (1); “Too different from your home to adjust reliably” (1). Of those, four became the comparables your case rests on, with 4 more ranked but not needed.
