Is a Property Tax Revaluation Coming to Your Connecticut Town?

The CT Home Blog

Sep 4

Each of Connecticut's 169 towns and cities are mandated to perform a revaluation of your home every five years. That's when the town re-assesses your home's value.

The reason and purpose for a reassessment is to ensure that all properties are assessed fairly at a "uniform" level of assessment. The assessor reviews recent property sales and other indicators, and then reviews the assessments in order to determine whether individual revaluations should be increased, decreased or remain where they are.

Remember, the town's tax assessor, or outside assessors representative may not always ask to gain access to your home, and you will get notification of your re-assessment, as well as the opportunity to challenge it if you think it is too high.

As a note: A "reval" (ree-val) does not necessarily mean that your taxes are going to go up significantly. Sometimes, the reval causes your property taxes to go down.

Scheduled revals in 2012 are Ansonia, Newtown, Norwalk, Redding, and Wilton

...and in 2013 are Darien and Weston.
