Barrow Homeowners Will Face a Property Tax Increase
Barrow Assessors Mail Change of Assessment Notices

Barrow Tax Assessor Cecil Highfield has just sent out Change of Assessment Notices to many residents of Barrow County.  Even if your returned value has decreased it is almost certain that your taxes will increase.  The state Homeowners Tax Relief Grant that funded a $20,000 tax credit on homestead properties will not be available. (Technically $8,000 of assessed value, but Georgia homes are valued at 40% of market value for tax purposes)

With a shortfall in State Revenues many Georgia Counties like Barrow are being forced to consider an increase in the millage rate essentially giving Barrow tax payers a second tax increase.  Around August 1st the Barrow Tax Commissioner Melinda Wall Williams should be submitting the digest to the Georgia Department of Revenue.  Meanwhile, the time period for county residents to appeal their Change of Assessment notices is rapidly coming to an end.  The bottom line is….

If you don’t act, your property taxes are going up!
