Your real estate assessment should be uniform with the assessment of other properties similar to yours and within fair market value as of January 1 of the current year.
To check for uniformity of assessment:
- Search for a specific property similar to yours by property address or tax map reference at the Assesors Online Database.
- Check for market value:
- Access your property’s information page using the method above
- Select View Residential Sales in this Property’s Assessment Neighborhood
- This will provide a list of recent sales within your assessment neighborhood. Please note that the best sales to use for value comparisons are those that are most similar (i.e., model, style, location, age, etc.) to your property. If these are not available, other sales within the neighborhood may be useful for comparison purposes.
