Over the next several weeks you will likely see news coverage about values in King, Snohomish and Pierce Counties. Last year many of the values in these urban counties increases by over 40% and this year values in many of these counties will decrease by as much as 20%. Here in Thurston our values increased by a much lower percentage last year, and this year on January 1 we saw increases mostly in single digits. So please consider these regional differences as you review your property's value change notice.
