Bill overview
This bill would allow Massachusetts cities and towns to choose whether or not to ‘freeze’ their property tax appraisals. A property tax freeze means that the assessed value of a property wouldn’t increase each year, regardless of market changes. This would provide local governments with more control over property tax rates and potentially offer homeowners greater stability in their property tax bills.
