How is my property assessment value determined?
Real property is valued by the assessor in the manner specified in the Wisconsin property assessment manual, from actual view or from the best information that the assessor can practically obtain, at the full value which could ordinarily be obtained at the private sale. In determining the value, the assessor shall consider:

  • Recent arm’s length sales of property to be assessed

  • Recent arm’s length sales of reasonably comparable property

  • All factors that, according to professionally acceptable appraisal practices, affect the value of the property being assessed

  • The effect of any zoning ordinances or conservation restrictions

  • The impairment of value because of the presence of hazardous waste or environmental pollution
