Benefits

Know where you stand before you call the City.

An assessment is the City's estimate, produced for hundreds of thousands of properties at once. Estimates can miss. Comparoll gives you the evidence to tell.

Clarity

See how you compare in seconds

Enter a roll number or address and get the lowest and the median assessed value among similar homes in your community.

Evidence

Bring comparables, not a complaint

A request to review an assessment carries more weight when it lists specific similar properties assessed lower. The report gives you that list.

Fairness

Pay tax on a fair value

If the City lowers your assessed value, the tax calculated from it comes down with it. If your assessment is already in line, you will know that too.

Transparency

Every match is explained

You see the rule used to pick each comparable: same community, same property type, similar lot size and similar year built. No black box.

How it works

Three steps from roll number to evidence.

Enter your property

Type the roll number from your assessment notice, or your street address. We look it up on the City of Calgary's public assessment roll.

We find similar homes

Comparoll searches your community for the same type of property with a similar lot size and year built, then keeps the ones assessed lower than yours.

You decide what to do

The free check shows the lowest and median comparable. If the gap is worth pursuing, buy the detailed report and take it to the City.

Questions

What to know before you rely on it.

Where does the data come from?

From the City of Calgary's open data portal, which publishes the current assessment roll. Comparoll is independent and is not affiliated with the City.

What makes a property "comparable"?

Same community, same property type, a similar lot size and a similar year built. The search starts strict and widens only as far as needed to find at least four.

What does it not compare?

Building size, bedrooms, bathrooms, basement finish, garage, condition and renovations. The public roll does not include them, so check those details for each comparable before you rely on it.

Does a lower comparable mean my assessment is wrong?

No. It means the question is worth asking. A neighbour may be assessed lower because the house is smaller or older inside. The report is evidence for a review, and the City decides the outcome.

Will my taxes go down?

Only if the City agrees to lower your assessed value. Comparoll cannot promise a reduction and does not file anything with the City on your behalf.

Which properties are covered?

Properties on the City of Calgary assessment roll. Matching works best for detached houses; unusual properties may return few or no comparables.
