Assessing 

Duties & Responsibilities


The Assessing Department is responsible for providing each taxpayer in Bow with a fair and equitable real estate assessment. This department administers the state statutes governing property assessments and provides oversight of all property exemptions, credits and current use programs. The Assessing Department provides real estate information to the public including property record cards, tax maps, surveys, plans, ownership records, sales and various other data.


Inspection Updates

In order to maintain accurate and up-to-date assessments, the Bow Assessing Department is conducting a cyclical review process, whereby all properties are inspected on a 4-year rotating basis. In this 2023 tax year, we will be reviewing the northeast section of Bow, which includes below streets. Appraisal representatives from the Town will be visiting your area this winter/spring.  He or she will measure the exterior of buildings upon their arrival, and if an adult is home, they will request to inspect the interior.  All Assessing staff have photo identification, “Assessing Office” brightly colored vest and sign on their vehicle.  All staff members’ vehicles are on file with the Assessing Department and Police Department. 

If you are not at home or you are unable to complete the interior inspection at that time, a follow up letter will be sent to you later this spring, requesting that you call our office to schedule a more convenient time. We would very much appreciate your assistance in this process, which should only take about 10-15 minutes of your time. This is important for the accuracy of your assessment, and for the overall success of this review process.

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to call us at 223-3973. You can also email any questions you may have to Catie Walker in the Assessing Department at cwalker@bownh.gov
