Property values are established as of January 1 of each year. Establishing uniform assessed values ensures that all property in Grand Chute is valued equitably and that the property tax burden is distributed fairly. Wisconsin law requires the Assessor to determine residential, commercial, and agricultural property values based on market value. Market value is defined as the amount a typical, well-informed purchaser would be willing to pay for a property. Farmland is often assessed at use-value, in accordance with Wisconsin law. Business personal property assessments are determined from information provided on the Statement of Personal Property provided by business owners. All manufacturing property is assessed by the Wisconsin Department of Revenue. Having the best information on record is an important part of establishing uniform assessed values. Property owners have the right to request an Assessment Review if they can provide new information for the Assessor to review in determining if a value changed is warranted.
