In Wilton CT 06897 - Challenge Your Assessment

Huckleberry Rd Reservoir in Wilton CT

Wilton is completing a revaluation of all real property for the October 1, 2012 Grand List.    The new proposed assessment is based on 70% of the market value as of October 1, 2012.   

Do you feel that your real or personal property assessments are too high in Wilton, CT?  Wilton CT Town Shops

Do you think that property values and assessments all around you have been reduced, and yours are still sky high?

You can contest the assessment revaluation now for this year with the revaluation company, Vision Government Solutions.     You will need the Parcel ID# and Schedule from your letter to make your appointment.   You may make an appointment to meet with them at www.vgsi.com/schedules  in Wilton to schedule the 2013 appointments starting at December 27, 2012, and no later than January 7, 2013.  

The time is here to file your petition with the Board of Assessment Appeals - must be in their hands by February 1 - 20, 2012 to be scheduled for a hearing.   Not postmarked by February 20 - but rather IN THEIR HANDS by 4:30 pm on February 20. 

The board will notify you of the times, date and place of your hearing.  Petitions are available in the Assessor's Office starting January 1st. 

There are no fees.

(I have heard rumored that the process goes a little smoother if you have a real estate professional and an appraiser along to help.)

Dagny, what an EXCELLENT post.  The information here can save many of your local homeowners quite a bit of money if they feel that their homes have been "over-valued" as a result of the new Assessment.

What an excellent source of Real Estate knowledge you are.  "suggested"

Dagny, there are a lot of towns in our state that have just completed their re-evaluations. A lot of home owners are going to be very upset at their loss of equity.
