Regionale Belasting Groep (RBG) is taking part in the national ’Check your home’ (Check je woning) trial, an initiative in which property owners are actively involved in determining the WOZ (Valuation of Immovable Property) value of their property. Together with seven other local authorities and tax offices – including Rotterdam City Council and GBTwente – we are seeking to increase transparency and collaboration in the WOZ process.
What does the pilot involve?
A total of 1,500 RBG customers will receive an invitation at the end of July to participate in this new way of pre-registration. Using MijnRBG, they can report the characteristics of their property themselves, such as the condition of the kitchen, the bathroom, the roof and maintenance of the property.
We use this information to check whether the information in our system is still current and correct. If we spot any major discrepancies, we will get in touch to examine this further, together with you.
How it works
If you have received an invitation, there will be a short questionnaire ready for you in your MijnRBG. MijnRBG can only be accessed using your DigiD. The QR code in the letter will take you to the login page.
The questionnaire will show you photos and descriptions of various parts of the property, such as exterior walls, window frames, kitchens and bathrooms. You choose the description that best matches your property. It only takes a couple of minutes to complete the questionnaire.
There are two versions of the pilot: one shows two standard photos per section, the other three. The allocation is random, so your neighbours may see a slightly different version than you.
Working together for better WOZ data
This pilot helps us move towards a more transparent and customer-oriented WOZ process. Your input will help us make property valuations even more accurate.
Important! We will never ask for your details by e-mail.
Criminals regularly send fake e-mails about municipal taxes and water board taxes. This might be in the form of a reminder or demand. They ask you to transfer money, usually using a link in the e-mail or to a foreign bank account. If you receive an e-mail asking for your (bank) details, be on your guard. We will never ask for your details by e-mail. More information about what to do can be found on our Phishing/fake mail page.
