Full Appraised Value

The first set of appraised values (labeled "Current Certified") are the figures as of the most recent certified assessment roll. This is usually done around the middle of April for the property tax bill that will come out the following December.

NOTE: If there are no figures in the first set of appraised values, that means that this is a new parcel number that has resulted from a previous parcel being split, combined or re-platted. Call the Assessor’s Office if the history of the transaction is needed.

The second set of appraised values (labeled "subject to change") are our current values as of today. They will be subject to changes throughout the year as we work on the new values for the next certification.

Net Taxable Appraised Value

If there are any exemptions or tax credits on the property, this value will be after they have been deducted from the Full Appraised Value. For the proposed values in the current year, most exemptions are not in our system until after the first of the year.
