PROPERTY TAX ADMINISTRATION

Cana provides centralized support and co-ordinates for the annual review of assessed property values and timely payment of property taxes. We provide all the necessary forms for members to qualify for Basic Home Owner Tax Grants (and Additional Grants, if eligible) and we carefully review tax allocations and grant applications to ensure your business receives the maximum benefit of reduced tax payments through the provincial Home Owner Grant program.

PROPERTY ASSESSMENT APPEALS

If the assessed value for your property is incorrect or has increased unreasonably, you may wish to file an appeal. The assessed value may have increased by more than the average for your assessment area, or there may be specific reasons such as significant repairs either planned or underway that could be grounds for a rate reduction. For more information about how Cana can help you determine if an appeal is in your best interest, just contact us.
