2013 assessments

How'd everyone's assessments turn out this year ?

For us, the house in Parkdale is up $19k to $244k, which I think is a little high

The condo in McKay is up $3k to $248k, which I think is just a tad low

House in Terwillegar Towne and condo in Westmount both down marginally. Although my parking stall in the condo jumped to $11,000 from $7,500.

City property south west actually down 5k!! which translates into a $76.00 roll back. But with the tax increase this will be negated. Which I have no problem with. Yes taxes are going up...they really dont go down

My house in Alberta Avenue (Norwood area) is up $47k to $315k.

I am not sure what to think. It's hard to believe that can be right, actually.

9-21... wow.

350 seems quite low, mind you I find assessment value is generally 20-25% below market.

Yes, that does seem to be the case across the board, typically

Holy crap! That's quite a jump. Mind you I see houses in your area come up for sale frequently in the $300-400k range

Down ever so slightly, even though I know for a fact that units in my building are selling for slightly more than they were last year. Whatever, I'll take the lower tax bill.

ohhh. interesting. Hopefully it will encourage some of the landowners who tend to sit on property for a long time to be more open to selling to people interested in developing.

Interesting. Even though our condo assessment was basically flat, like others have observed as well, our parking stall went up significantly, in the order of about 30%. Is the city placing some sort of extra value on parking in the downtown area ? If it's being applied to all parking in the DT, that's a good thing I'd think

It's also good to see values increasing in many of the central neighborhoods. Areas like Ritchie and Strathern are infilling rapidly with good quality houses and 2/3/4 plexes, And the north edge continues to experience an influx of new energetic buyers, and housing stock is being rejuvinated a very high rate
