CONWAY — Following a recent revaluation, the value of the town expanded to nearly $3.2 billion — up from about $1.8 billion in 2022. Revaluations are done to bring the town’s estimates for property value in line with market value.
The state of New Hampshire uses the reval data in setting the property tax rates. The marked increase in the value of the town should push the rate down. The effect on an individual’s property taxes will vary depending on factors such as if the property had undergone major renovations since the previous reval.
