Dekalb County Tax Assessor And The Property Tax Appeal Process

Information may not be reliable

In summer 2015, the DeKalb County Assessor’s office was inundated with property tax appeals. Residential property assessments increased by approximately 17%, which drove thousands of DeKalb County property owners to appeal their property tax assessments.  Once their appeals were filed, they still had to face the Board of Equalization, which ultimately decided whether their property assessments were accurate.  As you can imagine, this was not a fun process.

More than 16,000 property owners filed an appeal last year, which is up 46% compared to the prior year.  The result of this massive increase was a lengthier property tax appeal process, which meant more frustration for property tax owners.  Perhaps you or someone you know experienced this.

What’s on the horizon for this year?  It’s difficult to predict the future, but one has to imagine that the DeKalb County Assessor’s office is in no rush to dole out lower property tax bills.  As costs for goods and services continue to rise, county governments usually turn to property owners to make up for the shortfalls rather than cut spending.  What should you do if you believe you’ve been over assessedon your latest property tax assessment?
