You can object yourself

If you disagree with the WOZ value, give us a call or make an appointment to visit us. Just like you, we want the WOZ value to be correct. We do not benefit in any way from over-assessing a WOZ value. After your phone call or visit, we will be able to adjust your WOZ value very quickly. After all, people sometimes make mistakes. If we have made a mistake in assessing your WOZ value, we will be only too pleased to adjust it for you.

If you have called us or paid us a visit and we still haven’t adjusted your WOZ value, you can file your objection with us within 6 weeks of the date noted on the decision. You don't need to have a valuation report drawn up and sent to us. Just write us a letter saying why you disagree with the WOZ value. A municipality assessor will then reassess your home or commercial property.
