Auditors Adopt 50 Percent Yardstick for Tax Valuation
The Ohio State Board of Tax Appeals ordered all 88 county auditors to use a 50 percent minimum ratio of assessed value to selling price for real estate tax valuations. Effective December 1952, the rule aims to correct low valuations, applying statewide. If 100 properties worth 25 million at appraisal sell for 100 million, valuations in the district must be raised so overall assessed value equals half of potential selling price.
