Statements of Assessment Procedure

Statements of Assessment Procedures are guides used by Finance Property Assessors for valuating property.  They can be useful in understanding the assessment process.

How Finance Valued Properties When We Did Not Have Income and Expense Information
This policy explains how income-producing properties are valued without RPIE information. Finance will provide a non-filer list which reflects property owners who were required to file an RPIE form online but who did not file on time. If your RPIE is not filed, Finance will estimate the value of your property based on other information.  This may not be to your benefit.  The law authorizes penalties for late filing or failure to file.

If you have already filed your RPIE or believe your property is listed in error please contact Finance by clicking on: Contact Finance.  If you have not filed, we encourage you to file now: File your eRPIE Online.
