The Assessor’s Office is responsible for assessing all town property and administering property tax exemptions. Assessment rolls are open for public inspection during weekday working hours.
All property in the Town of Monroe is to be assessed at an equitable and uniform value in order to maintain fair, equitable, and uniform property values that accurately reflect changes in economic conditions and real estate values.
In comparing properties to yours, it is important to remember that attributes such as location, style, age, and size are critical to the comparison process. You should review assessments of truly similar homes in the same general market area and make your adjustments to the assessments of those homes to arrive at an indicated value for your home. If you are utilizing a comparable property’s assessed value per square foot of living area (SFLA), after subtracting the land value first, to make a case for over assessment, be sure to use those derived from similar homes in similar market areas and of very similar SFLA. Otherwise, your results will be skewed and will not prove your case.
To ensure all property in the Town of Monroe is valued at current and correct market values and that the information on file is accurate and up to date, the Assessor’s Office continually conducts town-wide data verification. The purpose is to verify that the information collected in prior years for each parcel is accurate and up to date for the entire town.
Data collection is a process where the assessor, or a trained employee of the assessor’s office, will visit every parcel in town to make an on-site inspection, including measuring where needed, and taking a photograph.
Each representative of the assessor’s office will carry identification and will attempt to speak with the property owner at the time of the visit. If no one is at home at the time of the visit, the collector will conduct the on-site inspection by verifying building measurements of existing structures and taking a photograph. Before leaving, the representative will leave notification of the visit and contact information in the event the owner has any questions.
Q. What kinds of photos are taken?
The photo(s) are solely for the purpose of general property identification and the structures on it. In cases where out-buildings are set away from the residential structure, more than one photo may be necessary.
Q. Will the representative need to enter my home?
Not necessarily. All information concerning the interior of the home will be gathered from an interview with the property’s resident at the door or through an estimate if a resident is unavailable at the time the property is reviewed.
If, however, the homeowner feels that there are interior issues which might impact the property’s assessed value, they may request an interior inspection so that the data collector can document and verify the interior condition of the structure.
Q. How will I tell if my property has been reviewed?
When an assessor’s office representative collects data regarding a property and a resident is unavailable, the representative will leave a door hanger on the front door or gate.

Beginning with the 2016-2017 school year, new STAR applicants will need to register with the Tax Department to receive a STAR check.
