Property Assessments
Supplemental Tax Billing and Assessments
If your property value has changed due to construction (ex. a new garage being built), demolition, subdivision, etc. a supplemental bill is produced to adjust for the difference and may either increase or decrease the value of your property.
In addition, under provincial legislation, all properties in Manitoba are assessed every two years to ensure assessments keep pace with changing market values.
Appeals to Board of Revision
You can not appeal your amount of property taxes, but you can appeal the assessed value/supplemental billing of your property through the board of revision held every fall.
If you then wish to dispute your re-assessment, please first contact the Provincial Assessment Branch by phone at 204-785-5092 or by visiting their office located at 103-235 Eaton Ave in Selkirk. If no agreement is reached with the Assessment Office, a taxpayer may apply to the Board of Revision. The Board of Revision is a committee that will sit down with the tax payer and examine the tax payer’s reasoning behind the dispute of the reassessment.
Please complete the Board of Revision Application Form if you wish to appeal.
Assessment Services
Assessment Services is responsible for the assessment of all real and personal property in the province, excluding property in the City of Winnipeg.
In Manitoba, property is assessed at market value in accordance with The Municipal Assessment Act. Market value is the most probable selling price of the property had it been sold by a willing seller to a willing buyer. Regular reassessments ensure that property assessments keep pace with real estate market conditions, and taxes are distributed fairly to property owners.
