The appellants appealed the property tax assessments for their newly constructed custom home for the 2020 to 2023 taxation years.

The Board admitted the appellants' late-filed evidence due to their representative's recent surgery.

On the merits, the Board accepted the respondent's expert evidence that the property was of the highest quality class but adjusted the comparable sales analysis to prefer a newer build.

The Board increased the 2020 and 2021 omitted assessments to $5,138,000 and the 2022 and 2023 total assessments to $5,715,000.

The appellants' request for an equity reduction was dismissed.
