Town Wide Valuation - New Assessments
A town-wide valuation authorized by the Select Board and the NH Department of Revenue Administration has been completed. Preliminary Assessment Value letters with the new assessment for all properties located in Rollinsford were mailed mid August and informal reviews/appointments with Avitar were held the week of August 22, 2022.
If you feel that the value of your property is not representative of the market value property as of April 1, 2022 or you have not received a letter, please contact the Town’s Assessor of Record, Avitar, at (603) 798-4419 or email [email protected]. If you have not received a response from Avitar within 3 business days please contact [email protected] or call (603) 742-2510 X320.
The total value of the Town has changed, and the new tax rate will also change proportionately. Therefore, please DO NOT multiply the new assessment by last year’s tax rate. The new tax rate will not be set until October or November.
