Revaluation Assessment Appeals
The deadline to appeal a revaluation assessment with Hunterdon County is July 1.
If you have questions regarding a revaluation assessment appeal, please contact Assessor Erica Brandmaier at (908) 638-8523 x105.
Additional information regarding filing an appeal can be found on the
Hunterdon County Board of Taxation website.
Assessment Value
The State Constitution requires all properties be assessed at “fair market” value. Therefore, it is essential
to maintain assessments, keep up with market prices and cope with inflation. At times, market conditions warrant
Revaluation or Reassessment programs to maintain “fair market value”.
If a homeowner feels their property is over-assessed, they may file an appeal with the Hunterdon County Board
of Taxation by calling (908) 788-1173. The annual deadline to file an appeal with the County Board is April 1. Note that
appeals are based on the value of your property, not the taxes.
