If you own an income-producing property that has an actual assessed value of more than $40,000, you are required to file an annual Real Property Income and Expense (RPIE) statement with Finance. Certain properties are excluded from this filing requirement by law.

We use the information you file and/or information from similar properties that have filed to estimate the market value of your property for tax purposes. You must file your RPIE statements electronically. For further information, download the RPIE-2012 Worksheet and Instructions. If you are not legally required to file an RPIE, you may still want to provide information about your property using the online RPIE-B form to help us better estimate the market value.

Continued for RPIE-2012 are changes implemented to last year’s rules to allow for consolidated RPIE filings of two or more properties that meet specific requirements. More information is available in the RPIE-2012 Worksheet and Instructions.

RPIE Information

Own an income-producing property with an assessed value of at least $40,000.
Owners of properties with an assessed value of $750,000 or more must submit the current rent roll (list of tenants) as part of their annual RPIE filing. Rent roll information must be submitted online using the RPIE form.
Owners should have all information relating to the type of occupancy the property is used for. For example, apartment owners should have the total number of units in the building, amount of parking spaces (if any) on the property, as well as tenant lease information.
If a user needs to correct or amend their RPIE form they can do this by logging in using their log in information for the property the form has been filed for.
Please call 311 or contact the Department of Finance directly in regards to any problems using the eFile system. Please include all contact information (name and phone number) in all e-mail correspondence. 2. The following major categories of properties are generally required to file: a.
