What to do if you Disagree with the Taxable Value of your Home
If you live in Clark County you should have received a statement from
M.W. Schofield of the Clark County Assessor's Office that contains a statement indicating the assessed value of your home.
When you review that form, look in the center portion of the inside tri-fold section, and you will find an area that reflects your TAXABLE VALUE. If you have any hesitation about this taxable value and if it accurately reflects the current market value of you home, just give me a call and I will do the additional research that is needed. This appeal must be submitted and received by the assessor's office on or before January 15, 2011.
You may be qualified for an exemption toward your real property tax and personal property tax which includes business personal property and manufactured housing. As an option you may choose to apply the exemption toward your motor vehicle governmental services tax. To use your exemption toward the governmental services tax on your motor vehicle, you must obtain a DMV voucher from the Assessor's Office.
Exemptions are available for certain qualifying persons such as veterans, surviving spouses, and blind persons who are Nevada Residents. There are requirements to meet in order to be eligible for the exemptions and further investigation would determine if you qualify.
Seniors can also apply for assistance, this is offered through a Senior Citizen Tax Assistance/Rental Rebate program to persons 62 year of age or older who meet the maximum household income requirement. This program applies to any person meting the age, residency and income requirements regardless if you own your own home or rent an apartment or house, or live in a manufactured home. The maximum benefit is $500.00.
Again, CallKim and I will direct you to the appropriate departments.
