  1. As a matter of uniformity in the assessment of real properties, all reassessment will become effective the following year when such property was assessed.
    It would mean if you bought property with unpaid taxes from 2000 to 2012, that property shall be revised under the Schedule of Market Value prevailing and that unpaid taxes shall be paid until 2012, so that by next year, 2013, that property will be paid in the name of the new owner per tax declaration issued by the Assessor
