Hi everyone,
Another update on the 2026 Revaluation.\ \ Avitar has completed their field review. You will receive a letter from Avitar Associates containing your updated assessments and instructions on how to schedule an appointment with the Assessor to discuss your revised assessment if needed.\ \ You may review your property record card (PRC) online by visiting avitarassociates.com and selecting Online Data, Subscription Information, Assessment Data - Review Online. Select the Subscriber option and enter the following credentials: Username: townoflyme || Password: lymetwn
The website also provides additional resources to help you understand the codes, notes, abbreviations, and other\ information contained on your PRC. To access these resources, go to the bottom of the screen and select For\ additional sales and value information click here. Please note that online assessment data will only be available for\ review for 60 days from the date of this notice. If you believe your assessment contains an error or you would like\ to discuss your property assessment with a representative from Avitar, please visit our website at avitarassociates.com/appointments to schedule an appointment. Once on the website, select Town of Lyme and\ choose an available date and time to receive a phone call.
\ Appointment availability is limited to the dates and times listed on the website and should be scheduled as soon as possible, and not later than 4:00 p.m. on Monday, October 19, 2026, to ensure an opportunity for review.\ Additional times may be added if necessary. No appointments will be scheduled after that date. Please note that all appointments will be conducted by telephone. If you do not wish to schedule an appointment but have specific questions, you may submit them through the inquiry form located at the bottom of the appointment webpage. A representative will respond as soon as possible. If you do not have internet access and no one is available to assist you, please contact the Town Office at (603) 795-4639.
\ Sales occurring prior to the April 1 assessment date were analyzed to establish updated land and building rates, with the goal of bringing all property assessments to 100% of fair market value. Please note, you should not attempt to estimate your next tax bill by multiplying your new assessment by the current tax rate, as this will produce an inaccurate tax amount. The total of the Town has increased an approximate 59% and the tax rate will drop proportionally barring any significant changes in spending voted in at the Town & School District annual meetings. The newly established assessments will be used in the calculation of the new tax rate, which will then be applied to determine the December tax bill.
