The Property Tax Estimator allows home owners to determine how much their property's assessed value will impact property taxes for the year.
For 2025, this tool is based on an estimated increase of 3% across all taxing authorities and the most recent BC Assessment Roll. The tool will be updated for actual rate increases in May once tax rates are approved.
Your assessed value is multiplied by the tax rate for your assessment class and divided by 1,000. The tax rate (or mill rate) is comprised of the rates levied by each taxing authority.
Property owners receive their assessment notices from BC Assessment (BCA) each January.
Please note:
Figures are an estimate only and do not include items such as Sewer Parcel Tax or Home Owner Grant eligibility. Municipal Property Tax
notices are issued in June.
