Carteret County outlines 2025 property reappraisal to Atlantic Beach residents; appeals due May 2
Summary
County officials told the Atlantic Beach Town Council on March 24 that the 2025 general reappraisal values are effective Jan. 1, 2025; over 62,000 parcels were appraised, the GIS will be updated March 26, and the deadline to appeal values is May 2, 2025.
Ken Palmer of the Carteret County tax office and representatives from Vincent Valuations LLC briefed the Town of Atlantic Beach Council on the county's 2025 general reappraisal during the March 24 meeting.
Palmer said the reappraisal process included data collection, neighborhood sales analysis and development of a Schedule of Values, with 2025 values set as of Jan. 1, 2025. He told the council the county appraised more than 62,000 parcels and that the updated values would be published in the county GIS on March 26. The office excluded foreclosures, auctions and closely held family sales from its market-value analysis, Palmer said. The county's new appraisal software, he added, is intended to make data more accessible online.
Palmer and staff advised property owners that if they believe a value is incorrect because of an error in square footage or other factors, they may use the appeals process; the last day to file an appeal for the 2025 reappraisal is May 2, 2025. The presenters encouraged residents to review the posted values promptly and to follow the county's appeals instructions if they identify discrepancies.
The presentation was informational; there was no council vote tied to the briefing. The Town Clerk's minutes say the county's pre- and post-reappraisal data and appeals information will be made available to the public via the county GIS and the tax office.
