Most DeKalb Appeals must be filed by July 13 and most Fulton Appeals must be filed by July 20
We had a very successful townhall on how to appeal your property tax assessment last Thursday. Over 250 homeowners attended and we received great feedback.
To view the presentation we used that evening you can click here.
There are several resources that we laid out in that meeting to allow you to appeal your assessment.

To make sure you get your appeal in before the deadline, look at your own assessment and the deadline date is in the upper right hand corner.
I am working to give you the practical tools to fight these, in many cases, unfair assessment increases.
As your State Representative, I will continue these efforts, just as Mike Jacobs did, to empower you and save you money.
