Appeals

Property owners who feel that their assessed value does not reflect a true market value are encouraged to contact the Assessor’s office to discuss their assessed value. Up to date sales information is always readily available for public review to assist the owner in educating them on the recent market trends in which they may not be aware of throughout the district. After contacting the Assessor’s office and reviewing the sales information, if the owner still disagrees with their assessment, they have the right to file an appeal with the Somerset County Board of Taxation on or before May 1st. Please be advised that the basis for filing an appeal is the disagreement upon the value of the property and not the yearly taxes paid on the property.
