Cumberland County residents reminded of May 28 deadline for formal appeals of 2025 assessed values

By Staff Report, posted 1 year ago

The Cumberland County Tax Administration reminds property owners the period to submit a formal appeal to the Board of Equalization and Review for 2025 assessed values ends Wednesday, May 28. The Tax Administration Office recently completed the 2025 revaluation of all real property to reflect fair market value as of Jan. 1, 2025.

Value decision letters for informal appeals filed are expected to be mailed by the end of June. Taxpayers who receive a value decision notice may file a formal appeal with the Board of Equalization and Review within 15 days of the date on the notice.

Taxpayers who missed the informal appeal period, which ended March 24, may submit a formal appeal. The formal appeal must be received by 5 p.m. Wednesday, May 28, 2025, or be postmarked on May 28.

Taxpayers are encouraged to submit detailed information and/or documentation that supports their opinion of value or why they believe the assessed value does not reflect fair market value.

Appraisers will review submissions and reach out to taxpayers to explain the next steps in the appeal process.

Taxpayers may submit requests for appeals:

  • In person at the Tax Administration Office, Room 543 of the Judge E. Maurice Braswell Cumberland County Courthouse, 117 Dick St., Fayetteville
  • By mail addressed to Cumberland County Board of Equalization and Review, P.O. Box 449, Fayetteville, NC 28302
  • In secure drop boxes located in the Judge E. Maurice Braswell Cumberland County Courthouse parking lot off Cool Spring Street or outside Tax Administration Customer Service on the fifth floor of the courthouse.

Taxpayers may view their property record card and 2025 assessed value online at taxpwa.co.cumberland.nc.us/camapwa.

More information regarding revaluation, the appeal form and how to appeal is available online at cumberlandcountync.gov/tax.
