What if I refuse to allow a physical inspection of my property?
If a property owner refuses a physical inspection, the assessor is directed by Wisconsin state statutes to send a certified letter requesting an interior inspection stating the following:

70.47(7)(aa) No person shall be allowed to appear before the board of review, to testify to the board by telephone or to contest the amount of any assessment of real or personal property if the person has refused a reasonable written request by certified mail of the assessor to view such property.

Basically, the property owner will lose the right to appeal the assessment without an interior inspection.
