Reappraisal 7/14/2021 -
THIS IS A SHORT AND SIMPLE INTRODUCTION TO THE BEGINNING OF THIS PROCESS. IT IS THE LISTERS INTENTION TO UPDATE COMMUNITY WITH THE PROGRESS AND STATUS OF THE REAPPRAISAL WORK ROUTINELY.
The Town of Pittsfield has hired New England Municipal Resource Center (NEMRC) to complete a reappraisal of all property in Pittsfield for the 2022 grand list. The last reappraisal in Pittsfield was completed in 2008. Since that time many changes have taken place, from physical changes to market valuation changes. Even though the assessments of improvements over time have been maintained, the base property data and valuation system is out of date. These value changes, along with the physical changes for the last 13 years, highlight the need for a reappraisal. The purpose of a reappraisal is not only to value properties at market value, but to improve the equity across all properties. Some properties will increase in value, some will decline in value, and several will see little or no change. In general, an overall increase in the grand list typically results in a lower overall tax rate. NEMRC will be updating the data by completing exterior and interior inspections (measurements, exterior pictures, etc.) We will be mailing postcards to notify property owners of inspection areas street by street. After inspection, each improved property will receive a code to access and verify the basic data (not values) using the NEMRC Online Property Data Verification system. For more information or questions please email [email protected]. Also check this website routinely for more details. Where Will NEMRC Be & When? NEMRC appraisers will be in the Liberty Hill area starting the week of 7/19/2021. What is the status of the project? 7/6/2021 NEMRC and Pittsfield Listers kickoff/planning meeting held. 7/13/2021 Reappraisal Notification Postcards were sent to Liberty Hill property owners with homes/buildings to be inspected
