The Osage County Assessor's Office, led by Assessor Ed Quinton, is responsible for assessing all taxable real and personal property within the jurisdiction. This includes residential, commercial, and agricultural properties, and assessments are conducted on a four-year revaluation cycle. The office does not collect or calculate taxes, but rather focuses on determining the value of properties based on market, cost, and income approaches. If property owners disagree with the assessment, they can engage in an informal protest or file a written protest with the Osage County Board of Equalization. State law requires annual reassessment of all real property, and the Assessor's Office utilizes research, sales ratio studies, and analysis of local conditions to determine value changes. Property owners who wish to appeal the assessment can do so within twenty days after the Board of Equalization's decision. With a commitment to fairness and accuracy, the Osage County Assessor's Office plays a crucial role in ensuring equitable property taxation within the county.Generated from the website
