Where does Realquest GET their data? HELP!

[Phineas]

But.....it's not a problem to base the square footage / GLA off of these records for.......say......a 2055......right?

Lol - I heard the best rant about this in the class I was just taking....the teacher first asked everyone in the class if they had ever heard of / done a 2055...basically everyone raises their hands

He then got all the students to talk about similar instances to this post (where county records / MLS / etc were way off and had nothing to do with reality / accuracy).

He then "connected the dots" for those that hadn't done so themselves and said so you don't trust the records do you? No! But it's ok to use this info as one of basis for developing a value? Well....I guess not......lol

Apparently they're about to do away with the use of the 2055 for financing / mortgage lending purposes (in NC at least, not sure if that's national or not)

Tax cards? What County are you in HunterCharlie?

My main County assessor is here [URL="http://maps.assessor.lacounty.gov/mapping/viewer.asp"][url]http://maps.assessor.lacounty.gov/mapping/viewer.asp[/URL][/URL]

Ventura County here [URL="http://assessor.countyofventura.org/research/propertyinfo.asp"][url]http://assessor.countyofventura.org/research/propertyinfo.asp[/URL][/URL]

Most cities around here have their own web sites.

My county has limited data on-line as well. I was referring to the actual card (or file) which, at least in my county, is confidential except for the property owner (I think it's state law but could be wrong).
