Do you think your neighborhood for some reason went up less than the rest of Calgary?
There is a process if you want to contest the assessment which if you are really out of whack with sale prices you can go through. I’ve never done it though.

If your not using the only real data available (who knows maybe they are, just poorly) then it can be arbitrary artificial whatever. Just is dumb.
