Sesport, you have an interesting situation. When you buy property what the transaction is supposed to do is grant you title what the seller offered, and the documentation on what they offered is in the purchase contract (lot xyz of a subdivision, or a description of the boundaries, etc.)<br />
<br />
Assuming you had a survey done when you bought it, and assuming your transaction included title insurance for the you, the purchaser, my guess is that the survey plus your title insurance coverage would mean…

Assuming you had a survey done when you bought it, and assuming your transaction included title insurance for the you, the purchaser, my guess is that the survey plus your title insurance coverage would mean that you either own what the survey said the description in the purchase agreement meant, or the title insurance company will make you whole.<br />

Anyone could make a mistake - your surveyor, the assessor's office. The comments by parker and The Baron are good advice.<br />
<br />
If they have been assessing you and making you pay taxes on land that isn't yours, then you should indeed contact them to get that addressed. On the other hand, if you believe the assessor thinks you have less than you think you do, consider whether that is truly a problem worthy of your time and effort to resolve..... :)<br />

Sesport,<br />
The tax assessor's job is to assess the value of your property FOR TAX PURPOSES ONLY. In general, they are the best place to START to find out information about a piece of property. However, they are no substitute for professionals. A surveyor is the professional that can tell you the area of your property. Just as their ownership maps and assessments are no substitutes for a Title Opinion from an Attorney. I know of instances where tracts of land were assesses that didn’t exist. The…

I would take the survey first. The surveyor would have used the assessors info, as well any previous property descriptions. If the survey was included with the paperwork recorded in the conveyance records, the assessors office will review it when they worked your deed.
