Under Ohio State law and Department of Taxation rules, real property is reappraised every six years by state licensed appraisers. An increase in valuation does not mean your property taxes will increase.
Appraisal Process:
An appraisal is a professional opinion/estimate of value.
Property values are updated based on:
- Market estimate
- Neighborhood sales and new construction
- Proposed values per square foot
Complaint Process:
Residential property owners who want to contest their valuation have two options:
1. Informal Review filing deadline was August 30, 2024
Residents who filed for Informal Review will receive notification of any valuation adjustment in November.
2. Formal Tax Complaint January 1 – March 31, 2025
File a Formal Tax Complaint against the valuation of Real Property by one of the following ways:
- Electronically with a DTE Form 1 through the Cuyahoga County Board of Revision during the complaint filing period
- Via U.S. Mail, email (BORinfo@cuyahogacounty.us) or fax (216-443-8282)
- Delivered in person to the Board of Revision
Address:
Cuyahoga County Administrative Building
2079 E. 9th Street, 2nd Floor
