Revaluation

Township of Maple Shade

Project Status (as of December 27, 2013)

The inspection and valuation phases have concluded. New Jersey real estate taxation law mandates that all real property be assessed at 100% of market value in order to ensure an equitable distribution of real estate taxes.

Property values are being mailed beginning December 27, 2013 for all taxable properties. Please refer to your letter for instructions on how to schedule a one-on-one meeting with a representative of ASI.

If you have any questions or if you disagree with the preliminary valuation, you will have an opportunity to schedule an appointment with a representative of Appraisal Systems Inc. to discuss your concerns. An informal hearing will be available for property owners who have questions or concerns about the preliminary assessment of their property. The interview can be scheduled at a time convenient to the property owner and will take place at a location within the municipality. You will be provided a number to call to schedule an interview should one be necessary.

The interview process will be informal and will focus on a discussion of your property. It is important that all the information presented about your property is accurate. If you feel that there are conditions that diminish the market value of your property, the interview is your opportunity to bring those factors to bear. All appropriate comments will be reviewed and considered to determine if an adjustment is in order. You will be notified via First Class mail of the results of the informal hearing.

Thank you for your continued cooperation during the revaluation process. Any questions regarding the revaluation process can be directed to the firm at 1-800-994-1999.
