J Lauver answered:
Working as an Assessor, in a town that re-assesses yearly, I can tell you that even if a township reassesses yearly, the numbers aren't going to reflect the actual current market. But they will be close. A re-assessment and/or revaluation uses the prior year to calculate values. It's a long process. Towns that don't re-assess or go through a re-val have "ratios". As the market changes the ratios are changed to calculate the assessment to current market value. Always call the Assessors office to see when the last re-assessment/reval was and find out the ratios. Typically listings are higher than assessments - Thu May 15 2008, 07:56
