Onslow County tax administrator explains 2026 revaluation delay and what it means for bills and appeals
Summary
Tax Administrator Kevin Turner said a statewide law delayed revaluations effective Jan. 1, 2026 to Jan. 1, 2027; Onslow will use 2022 values for 2026 billing, expects tax bills in August, payment due Sept. 1, delinquency and interest beginning Jan. 5, and will re-mail notices in January 2027 with an appeals window through Dec. 31.
Kevin Turner, Onslow County tax administrator, walked viewers through a recent change affecting property valuations after state legislation. "We did a reevaluation effective 01/01/2026," Turner said, then explained that a law requires counties that performed a 2026 revaluation to delay implementation until 01/01/2027; in the meantime the county will revert to its most recent schedule of values effective 01/01/2022 for the 2026 tax year.
Turner said the county anticipates mailing tax bills in August, with payments due Sept. 1 and delinquency and interest beginning Jan. 5. He described operational steps (re-mailing revaluation notices in January because state law requires notification when values change) and said citizens who filed appeals on the revaluation notices may continue the appeals process; changes resulting from appeals will be effective for 2027. Turner noted the delay keeps Onslow on its four‑year valuation cycle, shifting the effective dates forward so the next revaluation would be effective 01/01/2031.
