Tax Assessor

The Assessor’s Office is giving values to real property in the county. The Assessor and appraisers go and give values to houses; outbuildings and land. These figures are used to figure the tax value and what property taxes will be for the year. The Department of Revenue for the State of South Carolina gives guidelines to go by. The office handles appeals from owners and tries to settle them.

REASSESSMENT NOTICE

Edgefield County is in the process of our Countywide Reassessment Program which all counties are required under South Carolina law to implement every five years. We expect to complete the current reassessment by December 31, 2020.

An appraiser will come out to your house to make an inspection of your property. He or she will be riding in a vehicle that will have the Edgefield County emblem. The appraiser will be wearing an identification badge with his or her picture and name preprinted on the badge. The appraiser will proceed to inspect the property to insure the county records are correct and may need to walk around the house to make sure that all improvements have been identified. The appraiser also notes whether the structure has a deck, garage, swimming pool or other amenities. If any additions or improvements have been made to the property the appraiser will have to measure.

We appreciate your cooperation and want to make this process as smooth as possible. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our office at: 803-637-4066.
