Why does my value increase when nothing has been done to my property?
Supply and demand create market value and Assessors measure it. As demand increases and the cost of buying a particular property increases, other property values rise also. Your property becomes worth more, even though no improvements were made and you have no intention of selling it.

For more information on valuations, please visit the Assessor page.
