Every Broad Brook homeowner operates under Connecticut property tax law, and understanding the state context is the first step toward a successful challenge.

Connecticut market character

Connecticut has some of the highest effective property tax rates in the country at around 2.0%, and assessed value equals 70% of fair market value. Towns revalue on a five-year cycle, and a missed revaluation can leave homeowners badly over-assessed for years.

How Connecticut handles appeals

Connecticut homeowners appeal first to the Board of Assessment Appeals, then to Superior Court for larger cases. Filing an appeal does not risk an increase in assessed value.

When to file in Broad Brook

BAA filing deadline is February 20 (or the next business day). Missing this window locks in your assessment for another year.
