All property assessments are the estimate of a property\u2019s market value as of July 1st, 2016 and physical condition as of October 31st, 2016.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Property assessments are currently available online for homeowners who don\u2019t want to wait to receive theirs in the mail. All told, 2,017,364 BC properties were assessed for 2017, up about 1 per cent from the previous year. Together, they were valued at $1.67 trillion, an increase of 25% from 2016.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The most expensive home in the province is valued at $75.8 million.
