I recently purchased my newer house and there is no improvement value on my tax statement. Why not?

Construction on your ’new’ home probably began after January 1st. Because January 1st is the assessment we cannot tax you for the property that was not in existence on that date. That portion of your house that is complete on January 1st of the next year will appear on your next tax statement.
