If, in your opinion, the taxable value of your property exceeds the value indicated in the real estate market, do not hesitate to discuss it with the Assessor's Office.  The Assessor welcomes the opportunity to review any evidence you can provide that will show the valuation is unrealistic.

If, after discussing the matter with the Assessor's Office, a difference of opinion still exists, you may appeal your assessment to the Carson City Board of Equalization.  You may obtain a form during the month of December and until the deadline for filing, which is January 15.  Please call (775) 887-2130 to have a form mailed to you.

Understanding Your Assessment Notice

If you believe the market value of your property is less than the appraised value or taxable value shown on your assessment, contact the Assessor’s Office to discuss and receive copies of your appraisal. If you still disagree, the Assessor’s Office will give you a form to file with the County Board of Equalization. Persons who are not satisfied with the County Board of Equalization's decision may file an appeal to the State Board of Equalization.  Further appeals may be made to the District and Supreme Courts.
