Assessor

The Mission of the Assessor's Office is to discover, list and value all taxable property within the City of Pewaukee in accordance with state law. By providing accurate and uniform values, we ensure that the burden of taxes is distributed in a fair and equitable manner.

If you have specific concerns regarding the assessed value of your property; or if you have questions regarding the assessment process, please do not hesitate to contact our department.

Assessor's News

2011 Assessment Data

The assessment and property detail information found on the assessor’s GIS website includes the finalized 2011 assessed values, property detail information, and incorporates ownership changes and sales through October 31st of 2011. The Assessor’s Office will be starting field work to gather the necessary data for 2012 assessments, including new construction and permitted work during 2011, request for reviews, land divisions and new lots, in order to meet the January 1, 2012 statutory assessment date. This work and subsequent valuations will carry into the late spring of 2012, and we anticipate mailing 2012 assessment notices in May or June of 2012.
Due to staff reductions in the department we will no longer generate separate sales information and links to same, but rather refer you to the State Department of Revenue website link: https://propertyinfo.revenue.wi.gov/iasWorld/Main/Home.aspx, or the Waukesha County website: www.waukeshacounty.gov, then ‘click’ on ‘tax listing’. You can search our city data as well via the GIS link by entering your address or tax parcel number from your tax bill and scrolling up or down your street, subdivision, or development to locate sales as well.
Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns regarding your assessment or property information.
REMEMBER: should you need to make a mailing address change for billing purposes to notify our office as soon as practical. However, if you wish to make a name change with regard to ownership of property, that can only be accomplished if a ‘recorded’ document is filed with the Waukesha County Register of Deeds office first.
