2025 Assessed Values Notices in the Mail
The Snohomish County Assessor’s Office will send new assessment notices to property owners on June 27, 2025, reflecting significant increases in property values. For 2024, residential properties experienced an average appreciation of 6. 26%, while commercial properties rose by 2. 68%, resulting in a combined countywide increase of 5. 51%.
Property owners can verify their property details on the Assessor’s website or contact appraisal staff for assistance. The Assessor's Office emphasizes the importance of accurate valuations, which are determined based on market sales as of January 1 each year. Appraisers will also update assessment rolls to include new construction, with some property owners receiving additional notices in the fall. Linda Hjelle, the County Assessor, encourages property owners to discuss any concerns directly with appraisal staff before filing appeals to the Board of Equalization. Appeals must be submitted within 60 days of receiving the assessment notice, with necessary forms accessible online.
This proactive approach aims to resolve issues efficiently and ensure fair property valuations countywide.
