Real Estate Assessment Guide

This section of the Virginia Homeowners Alliance Web site provides information about real estate assessments and how you can appeal your property tax assessment.

Each locality follows slightly different procedures for determining real estate assessments, reviewing appeals, and determining eligibility for tax relief. Our Real Estate Assessment Guide provides information that is universal to all Virginia localities as well as links to property assessment information for every locality in the Commonwealth.

We recommend that you use this guide as a broad overview for property assessments, but that you also talk to your local real estate assessor's office to get the full story.
