What We Do

The Township Assessor is responsible for maintaining and updating township property record information through deeds filed with County Register of Deeds, Property Transfer Affidavits, Principal Residence Exemption Affidavits, etc., analyzing annual sales for use in the Mass Appraisal process to establish estimated property values based on the current market sales, etc.  Maintaining property records requires ongoing property site visits, including properties that have recently sold, have new construction or are part of an on-going rotational visitation process.
