Jan. 14, 2026 / For Immediate Release
AIRDRIE, AB – Today, the City of Airdrie mailed the annual 2026 property assessment notices and opened the customer review period, which runs until Mar. 23.
Property assessments provide an estimate of the market value of each property and are used to determine how property taxes are distributed among property owners. Assessments for 2026 are based on market conditions as of July 1, 2025, and the physical condition of properties as of Dec. 31, 2025, ensuring a fair and consistent valuation process across the city.
“After several years of rapid growth, the market is showing signs of balance,” said Valerie Cottreau, City Assessor. “Assessment values reflect this shift, with more moderate changes across most property types while demand for housing in Airdrie remains steady.”
Understanding your assessment
Property assessments are prepared annually using a mass appraisal approach, which groups similar properties to determine typical market values. Assessments reflect overall market trends and consider factors such as location, lot size, age, square footage, features, and recent sales activity.
Changes in assessed value do not automatically mean the same change in property taxes. Tax amounts depend on City Council’s approved budget and provincial requisitions for education and seniors’ housing.
Review your assessment online
Residents can review their detailed property assessment information through their myAIRDRIE account. Those without an account can register at myAIRDRIE.ca and use the web code and tax roll number provided on their assessment notice to link their property.
Additional tools and information about how assessments are calculated are available at airdrie.ca/assessment.
If property owners notice discrepancies between their property information and what appears on their assessment notice, they are encouraged to complete the online property verification form or contact the Assessment Department at 403.948.8800.
Assessment review period
Property owners have until Mar. 23 to request a review of their assessment value. After this date, property taxes will be calculated and billed based on the assessed value.
Questions about assessment notices can be directed to the Assessment Department at 403.948.8800.
