Property Taxes

  • The County deadline for filing for Homestead exemption is now March 1st.

  • Between Jan 2 and March 1, all property owners may file an amended
    return if they don't agree with current valuation of their property.

  • Go to room 503 in the County Courthouse, ask to "strike" a return and the
    clerk will supply the form. If you don't agree with the listed valuation, cross it
    out and write in your opinion of the correct value.

    We continue to seek ways to bring about tax relief through appeals
    and other local mechanisms.

    During a previous Tybee Neighbors' Meeting Rusty Fleetwood and
    David Birdwell presented an excellent concise overview on the work
    of our tax research team. This presentation provides an excellent
    understanding of Tybee property tax issues. To view this presentation
