- Q: What does your Property Appraiser do?
A: The Palm Beach County Property Appraiser is responsible for identifying, locating, and fairly valuing all property, both real and personal, within the County for tax purposes.
- Q: What is the Property Appraiser's Public Access system (PAPA)?
A: PAPA is the Property Appraiser's Office computer system for the public to obtain information on real property. Information furnished includes: owner name, site address, mailing address, Property Control number, Original Record Book and Page number, subdivision, current appraisal and tax information as well as certain details about the real property itself including recent sales information.
- Q: How is property appraised?
A: At least once every three years, an appraiser will visit and inspect each property, as required by Florida law. However, individual property values may be adjusted between visits in light of sales activity or other factors affecting real estate values in your neighborhood. Sales of similar properties are a strong indicator of values in the real estate market in your vicinity. For more information go to the Property Appraiser website.
- Q: What if I think the appraised value of my property is too high?
A: If you think the market value shown on your TRIM Notice is not correct, you are encouraged to contact the Property Appraiser's Office to speak with an appraiser. You can call 561-355-3230.
