Stay Informed: Values and Updates!

The Real Market Value (RMV) in Clackamas County has stayed fairly steady, with some areas seeing minor fluctuations as of the January 1, 2024 assessment date. Low inventory and quick sales continue to shape the residential market.

Remember, your property taxes are based on Assessed Value (AV), determined by the lesser of RMV or Maximum Assessed Value (MAV). Under Measure 50, MAV usually grows by 3% annually, leading to a common tax increase of 3% for many property owners this year, although individual situations may vary.

Watch out: Tax increases beyond 3% could occur due to property changes like renovations, new constructions, or new voter-approved measures.

Yellow or Green Statement—What’s the Difference?

A yellow tax statement means that your mortgage lender has requested your payment information and may be handling your property tax payments. If you have questions, just reach out to your lender. Keep your statement handy for your records, and remember: if your lender is covering your taxes, don’t make a payment!
