Is my property over-assessed in Maricopa County?
You're over-assessed when the County's value is higher than what your home would actually sell for — and then you're over-paying every year until you appeal. Arizona's administrative appeal to the Assessor is due ~60 days after the Notice of Value (mailed by March 1), per A.R.S. §42-15101/§42-16051. A separate Tax Court appeal is available through December 15. Arizona uses Full Cash Value (market).
