How do I update personal property?

Update a Personal Property Record to keep ownership, assessment, billing, and property information accurate and current. Changes may be necessary when asset information, ownership details, values, classifications, or account information change. Maintaining up-to-date records helps ensure accurate tax calculations, billing, reporting, and compliance with assessment requirements.

Examples:

  • Update ownership information after a business sale or transfer.
  • Correct an asset description, location, or classification.
  • Revise assessed values following an appraisal, audit, or appeal.
  • Update mailing addresses or contact information for the owner.
  • Modify exemption, billing, or tax-related information to reflect current circumstances.

 

By updating personal property records, you help ensure tax information remains accurate, assessments are based on current data, and property accounts are maintained correctly.
