Municipal assessment or market value?
The municipal assessment is used to calculate your property taxes; it is not a sale price. It is frozen at a reference date and does not see recent renovations or the actual condition of the house. On Centris listings, the percentage shown next to the total assessment compares the price with that assessment: a useful figure to spot a property listed far from the market, as long as you know which year the roll dates from.
For a seller, the assessment is a floor for discussion, not a price: market value is measured against recent comparable sales in your area. For a buyer, a price below the assessment is not necessarily a bargain, especially with a recent roll.
