Does a tax assessor have the legal right to enter your property to measure your home without your consent?

Question

What if you don't want your home measured?

Can they do a driveby assessment?

Do the have a legal right to to this?

Under what authority?

Answer 1

no as there is no need to unless you added on with a permit

Answer 2

NO

Answer 3

Your measurements are on building permits.  A check inside would show if the property was in good shape or deteriorated.  If I was the assessor and you didn't want me to see what was inside (your hydroponic marijuana farm maybe) I would assume it was in tip top shape and assess accordingly.
