Businesses and individuals owning real estate in Indiana valued at $1,000,000 or more for tax purposes should act now to reduce their Indiana real estate tax bill. Long-term lessees obligated to pay property taxes should also take action. 

It’s Now or Never! File your Notice to Initiate Appeal (Form 130) with the local assessing official for the county in which your property is located before the annual appeal deadline on June 15, 2021. For most of Indiana, the Form 130 must be filed with the County Assessor. However, if your property is located within the jurisdiction of one of 13 remaining Township Assessors in Indiana, then your Form 130 must be filed with the Township Assessor. Although, in Indiana, the property tax bills for the 2021 assessment of real property are not due until 2022, the time to dispute “overvaluations” of real estate is now. If a Form 130 is not filed by June 15, 2021, the right to appeal is lost for this year, except in very limited circumstances.
