Bernalillo County assessor urges property owners to review incoming notice-of-value mailings
Summary
Bernalillo County Assessor Damian Lara said notice-of-value mailings are arriving in residents' mailboxes, clarified the document is not a tax bill, and urged owners to check eligibility for exemptions such as veteran or senior tax relief.
Bernalillo County Assessor Damian Lara said in a public announcement that property owners in Bernalillo County should expect a notice of value to arrive in their mail and should review it for accuracy and for possible tax savings.
"It's not your tax bill, but it does contain a lot of important information, so review it carefully and know your value," Lara said. He told property owners to confirm that property details are correct and to check whether they qualify for savings based on veteran status, homeownership or age.
Lara also noted residents who are veterans, homeowners or age 65 and older should check the assessor's guidance for available exemptions. He directed residents to the assessor's web page at bernco.gov/assessor and said those with questions may call the assessor's office or visit in person. The announcement did not specify exact mailing dates or provide a phone number.
This announcement is a reminder from the assessor's office about the property valuation process; it does not itself change assessed values or tax bills. Property owners who disagree with information on a notice of value typically may contact the assessor's office to request a review; the announcement did not detail appeal procedures or deadlines.
