How Greene County Values Real Estate

🏠

73,000+ parcels

The Real Estate Department maintains information on more than 73,000 parcels of real estate.

⚖️

Auditor as assessor

The County Auditor is the assessor of real estate for tax purposes and appraises land and improvements.

🔁

Update cycle

Ohio appraisal practice requires viewing and appraising real estate every six years and updating values every three years.

35%

Taxable value

Greene County’s appraisal page explains that taxable value is 35% of appraised or fair market value.

📌

Data maintained

Auditor real estate records include appraised value, building description, building footprint, legal description, ownership, property address, transfers, tax rates and reduction factors.

🏷️

Credits maintained

The department handles Homestead Credit, non-business credit, owner-occupied credit, CAUV and Certified Forest Land Value Reductions.

Value vs tax tip: A tax bill can rise because of value changes, levy changes, tax-rate changes, missing credits or payment timing. Separate these before deciding what to contest.

Contesting Value: Board of Revision and Evidence

Use the correct complaint

To challenge valuation, complete DTE 1 Complaint Against the Valuation of Real Property and file with the Auditor between January 1 and March 31 of the following tax year.

Focus on fair market value

Valuation complaints must relate to total fair market value of land and buildings. The Board hears valuation complaints, not tax-dollar complaints.

Carry the burden of proof

The complainant has the burden of proof. Strong evidence may include purchase/lease agreements, closing statements, appraisal reports, construction costs, rent rolls and income/expense statements.

Know who hears it

The Board of Revision consists of the County Auditor, County Treasurer and County Commissioner President.

Appeal timing matters

Appeals from a final Board of Revision order must be filed within 30 days after the final appeal notice is mailed, with a copy filed with the Greene County Auditor.

Insider tip: Do not walk into BOR with “my taxes are too high.” Walk in with a value argument supported by sales, appraisal evidence, condition documentation and correct parcel facts.

Parcel transfer fee$0.50 per parcel.Add this to conveyance/transfer fee planning.

Estimates use Ohio's 35% statutory assessment ratio and effective tax rate tiers averaged across major Ohio counties. Your actual bill depends on local school levies, voted millage, inside vs. outside millage splits, House Bill 920 reduction factors (HB 920), and special assessments. The 2026 Homestead general amount ($29,000) and enhanced amount ($58,000) reflect HB 187 inflation indexing — your county auditor's office may show slightly different transitional figures.
