Attention Upshur County taxpayers: Assessor’s Office will review real estate in Banks, Meade districts

BUCKHANNON – The Upshur County Assessor’s Office will review real estate within Banks & Meade districts, along with new construction in remaining districts. This will only include residential and commercial real estate. The reappraisal is performed every three years according to House Bill 4127 passed by the Legislature in 1990.

Two appraisers with identification will be traveling in white Subaru Outback wagons. Cooperation with these appraisers and our office will help make this a fair and equal reappraisal. If you have any questions, please contact our office at 304-472-4650 Monday thru Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

As prescribed in West Virginia Code Chapter 11, Article 3, the Assessor shall make every possible effort to accurately assess all property, real and personal. However, it is ultimately the sole responsibility of the taxpayer to ensure that they are assessed properly.
