The Assessor's Office maintains property characteristics on over 8,300 properties in their CAMA (Computer Assisted Mass Appraisal) system. The properties are inspected on a regular schedule to reflect changes, primarily as a result of building permits.

Assessors are responsible for administering Massachusetts property tax laws effectively and equitably, and for producing fair and accurate appraisals of all taxable property which includes real estate, motor vehicles, and personal property. In Wellesley, property taxes contribute over 85% of the Town's operating budget.
