Kitsap County Assessor's Newsletter August 2024

Change of mailing address

Have you changed your mailing address? If so, you will want to update your account(s) to reflect your new address. Changing your mailing address is quick and easy.  It can be done online at a time that is convenient for you.  The Kitsap County Treasurer provides an online form that will send your request directly to their office.  A confirmation email will be sent to acknowledge receipt of your request. 

Destroyed property

Did you know that Washington State law allows the Assessor to reduce the assessed value of damaged property as of the date of destruction?  To receive consideration for this benefit you must apply to the office within three years from the date of the involuntary destruction and provide supporting documentation.  Fire investigation and insurance claim reports are great examples of supporting documentation.  Quotes or costs-to-repair estimates and photos are helpful as well. 

If you would like more information about this program, please check the Destroyed property webpage.  Once there, you will find the Application to begin the process.

Senior citizen and disabled persons exemption outreach

Do you belong to a group that would benefit from knowing more about the Senior Citizen and Disabled Persons Property Tax Exemption?  If so and your group would like to host a meeting on this program, please let us know.  Staff can come and answer your questions.
