Cyclical Reassessment of Land & Improvements

During statewide reassessments, county, and township assessors physically inspect each property to ensure that records are correct. Inspection accomplishes the gathering of data to value the property. For example, does the property still have a free-standing garage and an in-ground pool? Is the building on this property still 1,200 square feet or has it increased or decreased in size? By confirming this information, assessors can ensure properties are uniformly valued. Assessing officials will re-assess approximately 25% of the parcels in their jurisdiction each year over a four-year time frame. The maps below will show when you can expect our staff to be in your area.

Please note that this means someone will be onsite in your area once within a four year cycle for the purpose of reassessment. However, our staff could be onsite for other reasons. Staff will visit parcels if:

  • We receive a permit or notice of new construction or new addresses
  • A property owner calls in about their assessment not being correct 
  • The property owner files an appeal
  • A property has sold or Transfers
  • The new aerials show that our records are not consistent with what we have on the property card
  • When reviewing the property card we see there may be inconsistencies.
