2013 Reassessment / Revaluation
This year the Town will perform a Statistical Revaluation to update your current property assessment. In the budget approved in March the voters authorized the necessary funds to perform the reassessment of properties.
This statistical update is a verification and analysis of all market sales to maintain proportionality by an update of assessments on all properties based on the property sales study. Verification of sales should include confirming the existing property record card, with a physical inspection of the sale property to determine accuracy and making any needed corrections. This reassessment is to ensure the assessments are uniform, equitable and is the only way to be sure that the taxpayer is being taxed fairly and is taxed the same as other comparable property.
The statistical update/revaluation is underway for 2013. Commerford, Neider and Perkins (CNP), our contracted assessing firm for the revaluation, will be inspecting recently sold properties and performing a sales analysis to be used in determining property values for New Hampton properties. Notices will be sent this summer to advise you of the new assessment and meetings will be scheduled if you wish to discuss the valuation of your property. The new tax rate and new assessed values will be seen on the December 2013 tax bill.
