Waarderingskamer assessment of Schagen
First check whether an objection stands a chance
Compare your WOZ value per m² with similar homes in your street. It takes ten seconds and uses the same public data the municipality uses. If your value is clearly above the street level, you have concrete evidence for your objection.
Where do you send your objection?
The correct postal address is on your WOZ decision: the municipal tax assessment letter you receive each spring. Many municipalities outsource their taxes to a regional agency, so always copy the address from the decision itself.
The deadline: six weeks from the decision date
You can object up to six weeks after the date on the WOZ decision. In Schagen the decision usually arrives late February, so the deadline runs to early April. Miss it and your objection is declared inadmissible, and its substance no longer matters. Running out of time? Send a pro-forma objection to secure the deadline.
Objecting is free, no agency needed
You do not need a no-cure-no-pay agency to object. The municipality treats your own objection exactly like an agency’s, and filing it yourself costs nothing. This site lets you check your value and produce a complete, legally correct objection letter as a PDF, entirely free.
