Your Property’s Assessment & Property Tax
All property types were last reassessed in 2021 and will next be reassessed in 2025. Your property’s 2023 Assessed Value, shown on page 1 of your property tax notice, is based on your property’s market value assessment as of January 1, 2019, the provincially legislated base date. Your property’s 2023 Assessed Value provides the base on which the City calculates your 2023 Property Tax. Visit saskatoon.ca/assessment for more information and helpful videos.
