go for it
If you think the value is too high I would say challenge it. On a boathouse property I own in Tuftonboro they made a huge (and I do mean huge) error in value. The process for challenging the figures does work but it requires time and effort on the property owners part even when the town and its contractors make the mistake.
One thing that really got me was the extra value for cathedral ceilings, which included a 60 year old cabin which had never had any ceiling put in besides the roof. Cathedral ceiling? I can imagine my dad laughing to himself in his grave!! To think that a lack of enough money 60 years ago to put in a real ceiling ends up being taxed at a higher rate!
