Property Inspection Program
Foxborough Property Inspection Program
In order to provide full and fair cash value per (MGL. Chapter 59 S38) for property owners in Foxborough, an extensive inspection program is required to follow changes to property relating to improvements or increased depreciation from deferred maintenance.
Throughout the year, residents may occasionally meet an assessor or contractor from our office, with the most active time between April and November.
The inspections include a knock on the door to complete both an interior and exterior inspection. If the homeowner is not home, a door hanger will be left allowing the homeowner to call to set up the interior inspection at another time at the property owners convenience. It should be noted that the inspector will complete an exterior measure and two photos if no one is home to check and update our files. If property owners are concerned about the presence of an inspector on your property, please contact the Assessor’s office.
There are several reasons why the Assessor completes inspections:
If a property owner has a concern about their property record card or an error in the sketch, they should contact the Assessor’s office to schedule an appointment to review your property. This is the best way to ensure accuracy of your property valuation. If you have any questions or concerns about the inspection program, please call the Assessor’s office at (508) 543-1215.
