Who hears a appeal in McIntosh County?

The McIntosh County Assessor informal hearing hears the first appeal. Filing rules: 68 O.S. §2876, §2877.

What value should I compare on my Oklahoma notice?

The figure labeled “Fair Cash Value”. Oklahoma appeals are argued against market value as of January 1 of the tax year (68 O.S. §2817(B)), and comparable assessments of similar homes are also a recognized argument.

Does Oklahoma cap assessment increases?

Fair cash value of homestead-exempt property may not rise more than 3% a year (5% for other property); the cap lifts in the year title transfers, and improvements are added at fair cash value (Okla. Const. art. X, §8B). Owners 65+ under the income limit can freeze value (art. X, §8C).
