BERKELEY COUNTY, S.C. – According to county officials, assessment notices for Berkeley County property owners were mailed on May 19. These notices only go out to those who experienced a change in property value or assessment for tax year 2023.
A notice of property tax assessment is not a property tax bill. In general, an Assessment Notice informs a property owner of a value or assessment change. Notices are sent the year after a change is made to a property. Some of the changes to trigger a notice may include new buildings, assessable transfer of interest (ATI), renovations, additions, subdividing property, loss of 4% legal residency, etc.
If a property owner wishes to appeal, the owner/representative must complete an appeal request online HERE: https://berkeleycountysc.gov/…/informal-appeal-request/
The owner/representative may attach documentation to support the appeal. The deadline to appeal is August 17, 2023 (90 days from the date notices were sent). If a property owner does not wish to appeal, no action is required.
Assessment notices may also be viewed anytime via online property cards HERE: https://assessor.berkeleycountysc.gov/prop_card_search.php
Notices are attached to the card for the years in which a notice was mailed. For estimated taxes, please visit the Auditor’s Tax Estimator online HERE: https://berkeleycountysc.gov/dept/auditor/tax-estimator/
