I just came in the office and look what I found another Consumer Choice award! This is the 8th year now that we've won this and I just wanted to say thank you first off to my staff, they do an amazing job this is the reason why we get the awards is because they take such good care of all of our clients and to our clients that continue to call us back and give us referrals and vote us for this. We couldn't do it without you voting for us and putting us in this position to win this award. Thank you very much. I continue to look forward to working with my staff in the future and all of our clients and your referrals. Thank you again. www.JudyLindsay.com 204.925.2900

Did you just get one of these in the mail?This is the 2027 property assessment notice that's sent out by the City of Winnipeg. Every year, I've been doing this for 26 years now, and every couple of years when the city does this we get tons of calls from people asking is this what my house is really worth? and in most cases yes, it is. We saw two years ago almost a 10% increase in properties here in Winnipeg and last year was a 5% increase and that pretty much aligns with where these property values are. Let me explain it real quick for you. So here's an example of a tax bill sent out by the city. On here you will notice an assessed value and this will be the new 2027 tax we'll show you 2025 value there and you pay a portion percentage of it so in this case it's 45% which equals out to a portion value in this case $152,550 and then they use that value for your school taxes so $152,550 times the percentage that the city determines equals out to $1,900 in this case same thing with municipal taxes $152,550 times by the again the predetermined number by the city comes out to $1,970 and that's how they determine your overall taxes to be paid. Now having said all that if you think your taxes are too high or your property is assessed at a too high of value give us a quick call we can run some numbers for you that can prove to the city that they are taxing you too high and you can take that information to them and hopefully have your taxes reduced. www.JudyLindsay.com 204.925.2900
