Assessment Value Notification

The Carter County Assessor determines property values and provides notification of valuation. If you have any questions concerning your assessment, please contact the Carter County Assessor's Office at (580) 223-9594.

New Ownership

If you are a new owner of a property, you should contact the County Assessor's office with the correct address to send the statement before October 1st. As they will certify the accounts to our office on approximately October 1st.

Mortgages

If your mortgage company is responsible for payment of your taxes, you should contact them to confirm their receipt of tax information from our office.

Interest

Failure to receive a statement is not a legal reason for waiving interest. The Treasurer must assess interest on all delinquent payments at a rate of 18% per year, added monthly on the 15th day of each month, at a rate of 1.5%.

Payment Schedule

Your property taxes may be paid in full or in two installments: The 1st half or the full amount must be paid by December 31st. If nothing is paid by December 31st, then the full amount becomes delinquent January 1st and interest is added. We can not accept first half payment after the December 31st due date. If you choose to pay the first half payment on December 31st, then the last half becomes due on March 31st.
