Poll: How do you feel about the revaluation and its impact on your house?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A revaluation shaved $215,000 off the capital value of the Smiths’ home and has them worried it could drag down the price they eventually sell for.

Homes around the city were recently revalued for rating purposes and Hamilton City Council announced an average drop of 12% between September 2021 and September 2024, following house price drops over the same period.

How do you feel about the revaluation? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
