HOW TO APPEAL YOUR PROPERTY VALUE
Georgia Law requires the Board of
Assessors to mail assessment notices to
property owners annually. When you receive
your assessment notice, the first thing you
should ask yourself is, “what is the fair
market value of my property?” Fair Market
Value is the price that a willing buyer would
pay and a willing seller would accept for a
property in an open market sale. If your
appraised value is more than you
reasonably could expect to sell your
property for, then you should consider filing
an appeal. If you still wish to appeal, you must do so in writing within 45 days of
the assessment notice mailing date.
FILING YOUR APPEAL
•
If you do not want to take advantage of online filing you can still file the appeal
through the mail. You can click the link below and fill out the form and then print it
for submission manually, or you can print out the form first and fill in the required
information. Please be sure to print legibly and attach any documents, pictures, or
comments regarding your reason for appeal and in support of your opinion of
value. Place the form in an envelope and address it to: Fulton County Board of
Assessors, 141 Pryor Street, SW, Suite 2052, Atlanta, Georgia 30303. While it is
not required, we highly suggest you mail it with some form of certification such as
Certified Mail or Priority Mail so you will have proof of delivery. Appeals must be
postmarked on or before the last day to file shown on the notice which is 45 days
from the date of the notice. Appeals received or postmarked after the last day to
file cannot be accepted and you will lose your appeal rights for this year. The
Fulton County Board of Assessors cannot be held responsible for lost mail.
