Are You Prepared to File an Appeal in Indiana?

The 2023 Indiana appeal deadline is approaching fast, and all property in Indiana is appraised and assessed for purposes of taxation once a year. To limit property taxes, Indiana has placed a cap on property taxes across three classifications:

• Rates of 1% (class 1 – residential homestead)
• 2% (class 2 – non-homestead residential and farmland)
• 3% (class 3 – commercial and industrial)

Each year, the county assessors reassess properties within their boundaries on January 1, with assessment notices being mailed between June and October. Appeals must be filed within 45 days of receipt. Assessment appeals may be filed for up to three years if they are related to objective reasons, such as clerical errors, wrong descriptions of properties, or denials of exemptions.
