Assessment Appeal

Reminder: You are appealing your assessment, not your taxes.  Therefore, you must pay your taxes
pending your appeal.

The assessment appeal is a formal process that can commence following the issuance of the final tax bill.  An assessment appeal can be filed if you disagree with your assessment, the fair market value of your property. 

Generally, there must be either an error in the physical data of the property or the assessment must not be proportional to the level of assessment for all the properties within the City of Nashua.

The Assessor’s Office does not determine the total amount of taxes collected.  It is the assessor’s responsibility to find the fair market value of your property.  The amount of taxes you pay is determined by a tax rate applied to your property’s assessed value.  The tax rate is determined by all the taxing agencies, state, city, county and school, based on the funds needed to provide the services included in the approved city budget.
