Our assessors use a mass appraisal system to determine market value. We adjust all property values annually, based on actual sales of similar properties and statistical analysis.

Minnesota statutes require assessors to physically view each parcel to appraise its market value and defines market value as “the usual selling price at the time of assessment.”

The Minnetonka City Council convenes each April as the Local Board of Appeal and Equalization, advised by local real estate professionals. The advisors must gain access to the property in order to offer a value recommendation. The board may confirm, increase or decrease the assessor’s market value. Application and deadline information is included on your market value notice.

Market value can be further appealed to the county board, which convenes each June. You must first appear at the local level to be eligible to appeal to the county board. County appeal deadlines and details are listed on your market value notice.

The final avenue to appeal is a petition the Minnesota Tax Court. All appeals for tax court must be filed on or before April 30 the year the tax becomes payable.

Owners of income producing property (apartment, commercial, industrial) must file income and expense information with the assessor’s office by Aug. 1 in which the taxes are payable. Failure to do so may result in dismissal of the petition.
