Definitions and explanations
The change in assessed value for the simplified assessment of real estate in 2020 is calculated using comparable units. “Comparable units” refers to assessed units that remain essentially unchanged between assessments. Only comparable units are presented in this statistical news.
The assessed value is to correspond to 75 percent of the market value two years before the latest tax assessment. “Market value” refers to the price that the assessed unit could achieve in a sale on the open market. For the most recent simplified real estate assessment for agriculture and forestry units, conducted in 2020, this means that the assessed value should be 75 percent of the sales price for agriculture and forestry units in 2018.
The comparison of assessed values between 2019 and 2020 includes type code 110 Unbuilt unit for agriculture and forestry and type code 120 Built-up unit for agriculture and forestry.
In some municipalities, there is a small number of comparable assessed units, which means that an individual assessed unit can have a major impact on the reported change.
The reported changes are calculated using unweighted averages. This means that a change for each assessed unit that exists for each year and is comparable is calculated (one quota) and then the quotas are summed and divided by the number of assessed units for each accounting level (regional division).
