They just dump a file on to the web that gives the new assessments. Useless information. There is no analysis showing what the overall increases are for waterfront, non waterfront, commercial, etc. etc. Don't expect the data to be forthcoming....
If you take a look at your waterfront house's value on Zillow, or walk by a realtor and read the postings in the window, or Google Winnipesaukee real estate listings, you will be shocked at the increase in values. You could spend a few days on spreadsheets, or just acknowledge that 15-20% sounds about right.

As I posted earlier, it is a surprise that building values, at least in one case, are up only 1%.
