A blog posting at http://blog.redfin.com reported on the results of the Orange County Tax Assessor’s 2008-09 Local Assessment Roll of Values. The total net taxable value is over $424.0 billion, an increase of $15.2 billion, and up 3.74% over last year.
According to the Tax Assessor’s press release, ”Irvine is firmly the county’s number one city with the highest total assessed value of $47 billion, an increase of 6.22% over last year. Newport Beach is second with a value of almost $38 billion or a 5.83% increase over last year. Anaheim is the third highest at $34.9 billion. The City of Seal Beach has the largest percentage increase in value this year, up about 9.89%, followed by Tustin with a 9.71% increase, and Laguna Beach with a 6.88% increase.”
The report also showed that Seal Beach had 6,385 parcels – only La Palma, Los Alamitos, and Villa Park had smaller parcel counts.
