How does Assessed Value relate?

So let me preface this by saying I'm still new to the forum and learning the in's and out's of flipping. With that being said...

If you look at a real estate assessment website I see the land value, improvement value, and total value. I take this as meaning... the land value, the improvement value is the value of the home, and the total value is the value of the home on the land combined. Hopefully I understand that right...

Now when I look at redfin, trulia, zillow, ect. and I see a home selling for lower or higher that the total value is that good or bad? I typically see a lot of homes selling for higher than the total value. Is that an inflated price due to value... What should I look out for?

Thanks to anyone who can help. I really appreciate it.
