Assessed value can rise due to higher market values, a countywide three-year reassessment, property improvements/renovations, corrected property records (e.g., updated square footage), or—for commercial—higher income or lower vacancy. A higher assessment doesn't always mean higher taxes, since rates and the state equalization factor also matter. You can appeal if you think it's too high.
