It's that time of year again where everyone in British Columbia will be getting their BC Tax assessments in the mail over the next few days. If you still haven't received yours by the end of next week, you may want to contact the BC assessment office at 1-866-valueBC (1-866-825-8322). You can also check online at BC assessment where you can find your own BC assessment as well as compare to your neighbours or other homes in the area.

Overall residents will see marginal changes here South of the Fraser River as prices haven't changed much over the last year, but some of the northern areas of the province are seeing huge increases due to mining and the potential natural gas pipelines.

An interesting fact - over 98% of property owners accept their property assessment without proceeding to a formal, independent review of their assessment.
