BC Assessment is in the process of mailing 2019 Property Assessment Notices to homeowners throughout the province, including those in the Fraser Valley and homeowners can check their assessments online.
Fraser Valley Deputy Assessor Brian Smith says, “The majority of residential home owners within the Fraser Valley can expect a modest change compared to last year’s assessment. As of July 1, we continued to see strong market activity in the strata residential market throughout the region, where as the single family residential market was relatively stable.”
