Is this the MARKET value, or the ASSESSED value? Since you're getting this number from the county auditor's website, I suspect it's the assessed value. THEY ARE NOT THE SAME. Your realtor should be able to explain the difference to you, and if he/she can't, you need to get a different realtor. You should be basing your offer on the MARKET value, which has many determining factors - size, location, condition, and comps.
