A private service. We pull public records from Indiana DLGF.How you know

Indiana Tax Appeal is a private service. We are not part of the State of Indiana, your county assessor's office, or the Indiana Department of Local Government Finance (DLGF). We are not a law firm.

We pull public property records from the Indiana DLGF, county assessor offices, and Indiana Gateway. We help homeowners prepare and file Form 130 — Taxpayer's Notice to Initiate an Appeal through the existing public process.

Your information is encrypted at rest and in transit — only you and the county's official appeal recipients ever see it.

How to appeal your Delaware County assessment

Delaware County reassesses property values every year. If your assessment is higher than what your home would actually sell for, Indiana law (IC 6-1.1-15) gives you the right to contest it by filing Form 130 with the County Property Tax Assessment Board of Appeals. Most successful Indiana appeals combine an over-valuation argument (supported by comparable sales) with a uniformity argument (supported by neighbor assessments).
