2026 Property Assessment Increases and Appeal Outcomes
Summary
Residential values jumped 8.24% citywide this year, and homeowners who felt left behind came before the Board of Review. The board cut two assessments but affirmed most values, leaning on the rule that a recent purchase price sets your assessment no matter what the neighbors' houses look like.

Impact analysis
Assessment changes flow directly into next year's property tax bills — the two reductions save those owners roughly $8,000 and $62,500 in assessed value respectively.
Owners who won reductions — especially the Erie Street family with a fresh appraisal — and all taxpayers who benefit from a uniformly applied assessment roll.
Owners like the Voelker Street buyer whose purchase price locked in their assessment, and the St. Francis owner whose neighbor's erroneous reduction won't help him until next year.
