Cuyahoga County reported an average increase of about 32% in residential values from its 2024 sexennial reappraisal.

When is the next Cuyahoga County property reassessment after 2024?

Ohio runs a six-year sexennial reappraisal with a triennial update at the three-year mark. Cuyahoga County's next triennial update is scheduled for tax year 2027, which will refresh values for every property and open a new complaint window. The full sexennial reappraisal returns in 2030.

Do I need a lawyer to appeal my Cuyahoga County property tax?

No. Homeowners can file a complaint with the Board of Revision on their own, and most residential hearings are short. Many choose a representative so they do not have to manage the evidence and hearing themselves. FairAppeal handles the full appeal on behalf of the homeowner and only charges if the appeal wins.
