[Sugarphreak]

....

[nzwasp]

my buddy in the ne went from 300k to 380k

[killramos]

FFS up 90 grand...

Tbh I did get into the neighbourhood at a good time. The assessment value is bang on what things are selling for these days. Maybe even a bit less.

Oh well... Good thing I still have a job

Ours stayed about the same @ $219k but it wouldnt surprise me if it jumped to $260-280k for 2016 once the reno's for the exterior are done.

Has anyone gone through the complaint process? No way my market value is this high.

I believe that would only happen if you ask for a reassessment. Otherwise, I don't think they consider improvements.

[A2VR6]

Mine went up 64k

[carzcraz]

$96k increase which equates to 10%

[Black Gts]

Up 70k. It's actually on par with the sold prices in the neighbourhood now.

[Proyecto2000]

mine went up $20k

[mrsingh]

Mine went up about $60k, but it also now includes the basement which I finished in the past year.

[Canucks3322]

I'm ok with the value but I don't get why they say based on value in July and physical condition on Dec 31...I added a garage between Aug-Oct... does this mean the value of the garage is included very confusing. .

[Kloubek]

Again, I don't believe they factor in improvements unless you ask for a reassessment.

[ExtraSlow]

If you need a permit for the improvements, I think they DO factor in to your assessment.

So if you add a garage, or develop your basement, it does increase the assessment. If you just paint or redo the siding, I don't think it does.

NOTE: this is going by memory, and I'm not an expert. 311 could tell you.

[BerserkerCatSplat]

Yeesh, 44K increase. :/

[Tik-Tok]

15% increase. $65g

[Chandler_Racing]
