Property owners sometimes feel that the estimate of their property value and associated taxes are too high. The assessment appeal process is available to allow property owners the opportunity to dispute the assessed value of their property. This is available through the Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation (SDAT). To obtain more information about the appeals process, visit the website below. Obligation to pay taxes is not stayed or suspended pending an appeal from the assessment. Property taxes are due even if there is an appeal.
