The Anson County Tax Assessor's Office is required to reappraise real property at least every eight years. The Anson County Board of Commissioners has chosen to authorize reappraisals every eight years. Our current reappraisal became effective on January 1, 1994. Property values change over time and must be adjusted periodically to maintain balance and equity.
Some properties actually decrease in value.
Therefore, a reappraisal is a re-equalization process with market value appraisals and equitable valuations as the primary goals. These neighborhoods are homogeneous in that the parcels within the neighborhoods share many common characteristics and are affected by similar influences. In conducting a reappraisal, the appraisal staff reviews all recent sales of real property which have occurred within each neighborhood. This massive analysis of recent sales culminates in a uniform schedule of values which is applied to each parcel of real property in Anson County. The purpose of the uniform schedule is to insure equity in valuations.
