Industrial Property Assessments
Reading your industrial Property Assessment Notice
As a property owner in Ontario, you'll receive a Property Assessment Notice for your property every four years unless there is a change to your property. Learn how to read your Property Assessment Notice.
How your industrial property is assessed
General-purpose industrial properties have the following characteristics:
- They may be used for warehousing, light manufacturing or other general industrial purposes.
- They may be multi-purpose buildings that include office space.
- Their special-purpose features are limited which often allows them to be converted to another use without extensive alterations.
We use the cost approach to assess the value of most general-purpose industrial properties.
We do this by:
- Estimating the replacement cost of your buildings and structures
- Adjusting that cost for any depreciation in the actual property being valued (which includes physical deterioration and obsolescence)
- Adding the value of your land.
