In preparation for establishing 2023 assessed value of real property in the county, appraisers will perform physical inspections of residential and commercial property
VANCOUVER – Each year, the Assessor is mandated by law to inspect and revalue approximately one-sixth of real property in Clark County.
In preparation for establishing 2023 assessed value of real property in the county, appraisers will perform physical inspections of residential and commercial property beginning Thursday (Oct. 20) and continuing through February 2023.
What does this mean for property owners? You may see appraisers in marked county vehicles reviewing your property or your neighbor’s property for any updates and changes since our last physical inspection. They may even take a picture of the property in order to update county records. Residential appraisers normally do not leave their vehicles during revaluation inspections.
What do I do when I see them? Nothing unless asked. The appraiser may have questions about changes if you are available, or they may leave a door hanger on your doorknob if they would like you to contact them.
What if I lease/rent? The property still needs to be assessed. If asked about updates you may choose to answer the questions or refer the appraiser to the owner.
