Review your 2020 Annual Notice of Assessment. If you disagree with your value, or other information on the form, call to schedule an informal appointment with an appraiser to discuss your property by calling 912-764-2181. During this time to respect social distancing protocols, only the property owner(s) or their agent can attend this meeting. If you are unable to meet with an appraiser to discuss your property, you may always file a written appeal to our office. Please make sure to include any evidence that would support a value adjustment, i.e. an appraisal within the last year, photos of physical issues with the property or comparable sales. You can only appeal based on Value (fair market value), Uniformity (not comparable to your neighbors) or Taxability (churches, charitable organizations, etc.)
Also, starting this year the county is offering through this site for citizens to appeal online.
