Appraiser
Responsibility
The county appraiser is a public servant, working for the good of the taxpayers to place fair and equitable values on real and personal property in accordance with state law. The appraiser’s office is responsible for discovering, listing, and valuing all real and tangible property within their jurisdiction. The appraiser’s office values property based on market conditions per state statutes. However, the appraiser's office does not create value. People determine value by their transactions in the marketplace. The appraiser's office simply has the legal responsibility to analyze those transactions and appraise individual properties based upon what is happening on the open market. Please contact our office with any questions you may have about your property.
Mission Statement
The mission of the Office of the Appraiser is to provide professional, economical, accurate, and ethical administration of the real and personal property tax roll for the citizens of Reno County, setting values that meet compliance standards established by the State of Kansas in accordance with state statutes.
