Your Property's Assessed Value

Your property is assessed at the amount indicated in this field.

Provincial legislation requires that the assessment reflect the market value of your property as of July 1st of the previous year.

All properties are assessed using similar factors that real estate agents and appraisers use when pricing a home for sale.

If your property was only partially completed as of December 31, your assessment reflects the value of the lot plus the value of the building, based on the percent complete.

If the building is completed during the current year, a supplementary assessment and tax notice will be sent to the assessed person reflecting the increase in assessment from new construction.

Property Use

Every assessed property is used in a certain way. This section provides a description of your assessed property’s land use and tax status. More than one property use status can be assigned to your property, if applicable.

If your assessed property is partially or fully exempt from tax, a description showing the type of exemption is displayed.

Assessment Class

The City of Edmonton assigns one or more of the following assessment classes based on the land use of your property. The different assessment classes are:

• Residential
• Other Residential (for example, apartments)
• Non Residential (for example, commercial or industrial properties)
• Farmland
• Machinery & Equipment

If more than one assessment class is assigned to your property, the assessment will be portioned by assessment class.

Status

The City of Edmonton outlines the taxable and exempt percentages for each of your property’s unique land use(s).

Current Year’s Assessment

The assessed value of your property for the current year.

Previous Year’s Assessment

The assessed value of your property for the previous year.

This value reflects changes made to your property’s assessment due to an assessment correction, Assessment Review Board decision, supplementary assessment, change in exemption status or change in land use.

Note: Changes made late in the year may not be reflected.

Estimated Taxes for the Current Tax Year

This estimate is provided for information purposes only with the intention to help you budget for your next tax bill.

It is calculated by using last year’s provincial education and municipal budgets and this year’s assessed value of your property. Due to process limitations, when you receive your assessment notice in January, this estimate would not include any recent budget decisions made by City Council nor any local improvement charges you may be required to pay.

Your actual property tax is known only when the final City budget is approved in April and the provincial education tax is known. This amount is stated on your property tax notice, which arrives in May.

If you wish to plan for your property tax payment, we encourage you to use our tax estimator and consider enrolling in our property tax monthly payment plan.

Taxes for the Previous Tax Year

This amount indicates the previous year’s municipal and provincial education property taxes for your property.

It may be different from the amount stated on your last annual tax notice if your property was subject to an assessment correction, Assessment Review Board decision, a supplementary or amended assessment, a change in exemption status or a change in property use.

If you wish to plan for your property tax payment, we encourage you to use our tax estimator and consider enrolling in our property tax monthly payment plan.
