The staff of the Assessor’s Office wants to ensure your assessment is accurate and equitable.
If you feel your assessment is incorrect or have questions regarding your assessment, please call our office at 757-385-4601 to discuss your concerns with an appraiser. This is an opportunity to explain the assessment process and confirm the record for the property characteristics are correct. Our goal is to ensure your assessment is accurate and equitable.
The valuation of a property may only be discussed with the property owner or a duly authorized agent for the owner. In the case of a representative of the owner requesting an administrative review, an original signed Letter of Authorization or notarized Power of Attorney granted by the property owner is required.
There are several levels of appeal available to our property owners. While it is not necessary to appeal at each level, it is highly recommended the appeal begin with a call to the assessor as many times the concerns can be addressed without additional time and cost.
