BC Assessment

BC Assessment is a government agency that determines the value of properties in British Columbia, which is essential for calculating property taxes. They assess homes, commercial buildings, and land to ensure property taxes are fair and based on current market value. This assessment helps local governments fund services like schools, roads, and emergency services. Property owners receive an annual notice detailing their property's assessed value, which can be used in discussions about property taxes or if they believe their assessment is inaccurate. BC Assessment’s goal is to provide accurate, consistent property evaluations across the province.
