Union County homeowners seeking clarity on their property's reappraisal can attend an information meeting at Elizabeth Missionary Baptist Church on May 15, according to a recent announcement. The session, slated to start at 6:30 p.m. at the church located at 402 East Hudson Street in Monroe, is designed to shed light on the 2025 countywide property reappraisal process initiated by the Union County Tax Administration, as per Union County.
At the meeting, Union County property owners will get the big picture on the reappraisal process, including how the county determines their property's value and what steps to take if they don't agree with the new assessment. Vann Harrell, who serves as the Union County Tax Administrator, emphasized the aim of the meeting. "We want to make sure residents understand the reappraisal process, why it's required, and what options they have if they believe their new value is incorrect," Harrell expressed in a statement. However, it should be noted that specific concerns regarding individual properties will not be addressed in this forum.
Understanding that property values have evolved with the market, the state mandates reappraisals to guarantee fair and equitable assessments. For those who cannot make it to the church for the meeting, the Tax Administration Office is ready to answer questions over the phone at 704.283.3746 or through email at [email protected].
Residents who question the new values assigned to their properties must act promptly. The deadline to file an appeal is by 5 p.m. on May 28, 2025, either electronically via the county's website or through a postmark on a mailed-in appeal. This information, provided by Union County, carries the weight of ensuring that every property owner has a fair chance to contest their new assessment, should they find it not to their liking.
