Realtor begins 1,000-door campaign at Cowichan Lake to talk about property assessments

Jason Anson, a real estate professional, launched a 1,000-door campaign from June 1 through July 31 in Cowichan Lake communities to address property assessments.
The campaign aims to uncover and correct over assessments on residential properties before BC Assessment finalizes 2026 values based on its July 1 valuation date.
Anson has successfully challenged over 50 property assessments, often lowering the assessed value of each home by approximately $400,000 and resulting in an average tax refund of about $2,000 for each homeowner.
Anson explained that the issue extends beyond fairness for individuals, highlighting how this system subtly influences choices and actions throughout the housing market as a whole.
BC Assessment encourages property owners to access online data at bcassessment.ca and offers free services to address concerns about assessments by phone, online, or in person.
