The description of my property (e.g.: size, etc.) is wrong

Does the error in your property description make a large difference in your total assessment?

See example

Instructions:

  • If possible, estimate how much your assessment would change if the error was corrected.
  • Calculate the percentage change in your assessment.
  • Is this a large change (more than 5%)?  If so, answer "yes" to this question.
Yes
No

Your assessment is an estimate of your property's market value.  Therefore, we cannot say that your property is worth one precise figure.  It could be worth a little less or a little more than your assessment.

For this reason, we will usually not make a small change in your assessment for a minor error.

Think about the potential benefit of continuing with the appeal:

  • Possible savings in property tax may be less than your time and expense to participate in the appeal steps;
  • This cost-benefit decision is completely yours.
