Property Reassessments are creating real concerns across Lackawanna County, especially for our seniors and those on fixed incomes. A moderated panel of experts in residential and commercial reassessment and appraisals will share clear, practical guidance on navigating the process, including appeals and relief programs like Clean and Green. A Q&A session will follow to answer your questions.
Data Collecting for Countywide Reassessment
Lackawanna County has contracted with Tyler Technologies Appraisal Services to assist with the reassessment project. Tyler Technologies staff will work with the Lackawanna County Assessor’s Office to capture accurate, current information on the properties in your community.
The data collectors will measure buildings and speak with property owners. All Tyler Staff will wear photo ID badges issued by Lackawanna County and bright yellow vests identifying them as part of the reassessment project. Local police and officials will receive advance schedules listing the areas where Tyler staff will be working.
Depending on the nature of the project, data collectors may view a property from the street, use remote imagery, walk around the property, or any combination of these approaches. Data Collectors will begin their assessment by first trying to contact the homeowner. They will knock on the door, introduce themselves, and ask if the property owner has time to answer questions about their property (how many bedrooms/bathrooms/total rooms/basement finished or unfinished/any remodeling updates, etc). Our data collectors are gathering this information at the door, they are NOT entering any homes. They will then continue to measure the exterior of the home and any outbuildings on the premises before moving on to the next residence.
