Why are my taxes different from my neighbours?

Each property is assessed according to the guidelines established by The Cities Act and the Saskatchewan Assessment Management Association (SAMA). Properties have different assessments based on these guidelines. Things such as building size, lot size, construction quality, style, condition or effective age of any buildings on your property can influence your property’s fair tax value.

Assessments are updated every four years, and whenever there is a substantial change to your property. Assessments may also be updated through a random audit. If there has been no change to your assessment from the previous year, you will not receive an assessment notice.
