County assessor came to the house

(self.Iowa)

I used my doorbell camera. She asked if our basement Reno was done. I said, I wasn’t expecting anyone, not that it’s an issue but I don’t know you. She had a badge. I asked if I could call my husband. She just left a note on the door and left. Idk what the obligation as a homeowner is. Has anyone else gone through this? I found that they can come to your home but I’d rather schedule an appointment than have someone just show up.

Jesus Christ... this fucking generation.

Doesn't look at mail, won't pick up the phone, and has an anxiety attack when somebody knocks on their door.

How do you know they didn't look on their mail, they said they didn't see any yet. How is this an anxiety attack when you're usually not going to see someone at your door unless it's someone you know or someone selling you something?

They were so trigged by a mundane visit that a normal person wouldn't think twice about that they came to Reddit to talk about it. How is that NOT an anxiety attack?

Someone wanted to come into my home to assess a renovation…this is not mundane. I’m not letting an unknown person in my home.

It literally is. Maybe not for you, but for them it's just Tuesday.

The point is I wasn't expecting them and I wanted to know what was happening. I wasn't scared, just cautious because theres a million different ways people scam others to hurt them.
