Revaluation Updates

The Village is nearing the end of Phase 1, interior inspections of all properties. If you have not had an interior inspection of your property completed, please call PROFESSIONAL PROPERTY APPRAISERS at 866-957-1388 to schedule an appointment. An INTERIOR INSPECTION needs to be made for assessment accuracy and to ensure that the tax burden is distributed “fairly” among all property owners.
Phase 2 will begin once inspections are completed. This phase will consist of letters being sent to all property owners with their preliminary new assessment for 2024.
Phase 3 will be meeting with any homeowner that has questions about their preliminary assessment.
Phase 4 will be finalizing the assessments for all properties and submitting those new assessments to the County Tax Board for 2024.
