Property Tax Assessment

Residential, Commercial, Industrial and Farmland property is assessed by the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) in Ontario for the purposes of attributing municipal tax valuations. Sometimes, the price of the property is assessed incorrectly resulting in incorrect municipal property taxes. Let J.A.B. Legal Services negotiate with MPAC to reduce your property valuation amount. If negotiations from a reconsideration request are not fruitful, J.A.B. Legal Services can represent you in appealing the MPAC valuation to the Assessment Review Board.
