Appealing Property Tax Valuations in Hamilton & Butler County

On 01/15/09, I attended a 3-hour class given by real estate attorney, Chris Finney (Finney, Stagnaro, Saba & Patterson Co., LPA) and special guest, Dusty Rhodes, Hamilton County Auditor. The class was titled: “Reducing Your Property Taxes: Property Tax Valuation Appeals in Ohio”. If you live in Hamilton or Butler County and are thinking about appealing your new property value used for taxes, you will find helpful these notes taken during the class.

Homestead Exemption: In Ohio, any property that’s owner-occupied and the owner is 65 years or older, is entitled to an exemption on the first $25,000 of property value for taxes. If this applies & you aren’t receiving the Homestead Exemption, you can find the forms for Hamilton County residents here. Applications must be filed before June 01, 2009, or you have to wait for the following year to file.
