I believe past taxes may only be a guideline. If a property is assessed at let's say $250,000 in 2018 and you purchase the property at $400,000, the assessed value will increase quite a bit. I've been told roughly 85% of the purchase price will be the assessed value but I'm not convinced that is accurate.
$4000 difference sounds like something is missing.
