WHAT PROPERTIES MUST BE APPRAISED?
- REAL PROPERTY - the physical land and appurtenances affixed to the land, e.g., structures. The term "land," "real estate," "realty" and "real property" are often used interchangeably.
- TANGIBLE PERSONAL PROPERTY - items other than real estate that is used in a business and that has value by itself. It includes such assets as furniture, computers, tools, machinery, signs, equipment, leasehold improvements, supplies and leased equipment.
- MINERALS - although considered real property are mentioned separately due to the oil fields in Jay and the Blackjack Creek Field. Mineral rights and working interests are taxable.
- CENTRALLY ASSESSED PROPERTIES - commonly thought of as railroads, are appraised by the Department of Revenue.
- MOBILE HOMES & MANUFACTURED HOMES - when permanently in place with a real property (RP) designation.
