The
Real Estate Department of the Commissioner's
Office is responsible for maintaining all real
property records for the purpose of assessment
and taxation. Transfers of ownership of property
are performed by obtaining deed transfers, deeds
of correction, lists of heirs, wills and other
records from the
Clerk of the Circuit Court. It is important
to maintain timely recordings of transfers to
ensure actual owners of property are assessed
and taxed. The office works closely with the
public, as well as the
Clerk of the Circuit Court Office and the
Treasurer's
Office. Real estate property records are
accessible to the public.
Railroads,
pipelines and utility property are assessed
by the
State Corporation Commission or
Department of Taxation and reported to the
Commissioner of the Revenue for inclusion in
the local tax roll.
The Commissioner of the Revenue verifies
this information and maintains these records
in the office.
The
real estate tax rate as of January 1, 2007 is
fifty-seven (57) cents per $100 of assessed
value.
Real
Estate taxes are due May 15 and October 15.
