Appraisers in Oak Harbor to inspect properties

For the next six months you can expect that the Island County Assessor’s office will be in your neighborhood if you live in and around a 10 mile radius of Oak Harbor. The appraisers are inspecting homes for critical information on the current quality and condition of homes and buildings, changes to land characteristics, new construction effecting value and any negative impacts to your property value.

The Appraisal staff wear required badges to identify themselves, carry business cards and drive a county identified vehicle. They will knock at the property door first before measuring or photographing the exterior of your home to insure the Assessor’s records are accurate. All appraisers are deputized and state law authorizes access onto property for this inspection.

An appraisal based on fair market value determines the assessed value for the purpose of property tax. Fair market value is determined based on comparisons with similar properties. These comparisons are most fair and equitable when they are based on property characteristics that are accurately recorded in the assessor's office. Property inspections provide this vital information and are required by state law every six years.

If you have any questions call the Assessor’s office at: 360.679.7303 we can be reached between the hours of 9:00am to 2:00pm Monday thru Thursday.
