2026 Property Assessments Issued by BC Assessment
Posted on
The BC Assessment Authority will be issuing the 2026 property assessments to property owners across British Columbia on January 2, 2026.
A significant change to your property’s assessed values does not necessarily result in a proportionately significant change in your property taxes. It is less important how much a property’s value has changed in isolation, but rather how the assessed value has changed relative to the average change for the property class, e.g. residential.
