REAL ESTATE NEWS

UPCOMING BC ASSESSMENTS MAY REFLECT MARKET CHANGES

Assessor and B.C. Assessment spokesperson Tina Ireland said, “We first saw signs of moderation during the 2019 property assessments. For 2020 assessments, we are seeing a continued ripple effect of a moderating market expanding across the province.”  This is may not be the case for everyone in BC though! “Changes in property assessments really depend on where you live,” said Ireland. “For example, assessed values of homes in many areas of Metro Vancouver will see a softening in value, while other markets and areas of the province will see minimal change and even modest increases over last year’s values.” For more information read this Article in the Squamish Chief
