I am trying to help my mother appeal her property taxes which she has never done before. I found a helpful video on youtube. Township is Maine in Niles

The biggest issue I am having is finding comparable homes. All the homes in my neighborhood are fairly similar split levels. In the early 80's my parents expanded the home by putting another level on top of one of the splits (Kitchen/Living/Dining room). No other homes have this. I am finding homes with similar numbers of bed and bath rooms and square-footage though I am pretty sure that is because they have a finished basement and she only has a partially finished one (A bad DIY job with no insulation just walls, tile ceilings, lights and electrical and will probably have to mostly get done over) which is not counted. The interior is best described as a gut job needed with major remodels, new flooring and interior paint and such which I understand they don't take into account.

I also understand they want pictures of the comp homes which is stupid as pics are already on file on the county website.

Can someone tell me how best to do it?
