North Central B.C. assessments rise to $104.7 billion as housing market remains stable
PRINCE GEORGE – BC Assessment has released 2026 property assessments for about 250,000 properties in North Central B.C., reflecting market values as of July 1, 2025, with most homeowners seeing changes between -5% and +15%.
The region’s real estate market remains stable, and total assessed values increased from $99.8 billion in 2025 to approximately $104.7 billion in 2026, including nearly $1 billion from new construction and development. Property owners can view and compare assessments online at bcassessment.ca, download their notices, and access market trends and property information.
Owners who believe their assessment is inaccurate are encouraged to contact BC Assessment in January, with appeals due by February 2 for independent review, noting that assessment changes do not automatically mean higher or lower property taxes.
