Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I agree with @NCperson  I would also suggest that you could roughly evaluate the appraisal. you paid x for the house in 2012 from that subtract your estimate of the cost of the land and any other detached structures such as a garage or shed.  this gives you just the cost of the house. does the appraised value seem reasonable in relation to the cost? if yes, go for it.
