AboutMyProperty? New features allow for easier searching of residential properties When you visitAboutMyProperty?, you can use the interactive map or property address search to help you compare your assessment to the assessment of similar properties in your neighbourhood. Through the map, you can view up to 100 Property Detail Snapshots to help you make an informed choice of what is a comparable property, or a property that is most similar to your own.
For areas of the province where mapping is not available, you can search at the municipal level through an address search. If you want to look up a property that is not in your neighbourhood, but still within your municipality, you can enter the address in the property search window to get a Property Detail Snapshot.
Step 3 - Ask MPAC to review your assessment through a Request for Reconsideration (RfR)
If you still do not believe your assessed value or classification is accurate, MPAC will review it free of charge. The deadline to file your RfR is March 31 of the tax year.
There are two ways to file a RfR:
The preferred method is to complete a RfR form.
Forms are available at www. mpac.ca or call us and we?ll send you a copy. You may also choose to file your RfR electronically through AboutMyProperty?. You will be able to attach documents, pictures and reports to accompany your RfR.
