Property owners who wish to challenge their tax assessment, believing that their property is overvalued on the 10/1/2021 Grand List, only have a few weeks left to file a written appeal with the Board of Assessment Appeals (the “Board”). A successful appeal results in property tax savings to the owner. By statute, the deadline to appeal is February 20, 2022 (unless extended by the city/town to March 20). However, February 20th falls on a Sunday this year, taxpayers are strongly encouraged to file by February 18, 2022 to ensure their appeals are accepted as timely by the municipality. Except in unusual circumstances, property owners will lose the ability to challenge their assessment if a timely appeal to the Board is not filed.
