What to check on your notice
The typical Nottoway County home gained 13.0% in the year to January 2026. A notice that rose far more than that, or a value above what similar homes nearby actually sold for, is the usual starting point for an appeal.
How a Virginia appeal works
Values in Nottoway County are set by the local local real estate assessor's office, and the appeal starts there. The rules below apply statewide; your notice has the exact dates and office for your property.
| Who sets the value | Local real estate assessor's office. Each county and independent city values its own real estate, usually through an assessor's office or the commissioner of revenue. There is no statewide appeal calendar. |
|---|---|
| Valuation date | Set locally, commonly January 1 |
| Your notice | Reassessment or assessment notice |
| Deadline | Virginia has no single statewide deadline. Your locality sets the date to apply to its Board of Equalization by ordinance, and it cannot be earlier than 30 days after the assessor's deadline to hear objections. In towns, you have 30 days after reassessments are filed with the town clerk. Notice of an assessor's hearing must be mailed at least 15 days before it. |
| First step | Ask the local assessor or commissioner of revenue to review your value at an objection hearing, then apply to the local Board of Equalization. |
| If you still disagree | Circuit court. Where a locality requires it, you must have a Board of Equalization hearing first. State law lets you file within the latest of 3 years from the end of the tax year, 1 year from the assessment, or 1 year from a final local or Tax Commissioner decision. |
| Can the value go up? | Yes. The Board of Equalization can raise or lower an assessment. |
Reading this in fall 2026? Most localities have already closed their 2026 equalization windows. Your next realistic chance is the 2027 notice and objection period, which each locality sets, so check your county or city website early in 2027. Separately, the circuit court route for a 2026 assessment may stay open for a year or more under state law, but in some localities you must go through the Board of Equalization first.
- The burden of proof is on the taxpayer.
- Board of Equalization deadlines and sitting dates are set by each locality, not the state.
- Counties must reassess every four years, or every three if the board of supervisors votes to, but small counties may use five or six years.
Find your local office in the Virginia Department of Taxation (property tax unit).
Building a Nottoway County case
A citywide index shows the trend. Your case needs your house. In a smaller or rural market, sales can be sparse. Explain why each sale you use still compares with your home.
- Request your assessment records in writing. Assessing officers must provide copies within 15 days.
- Prepare sales of comparable properties and evidence of unequal treatment, since you must rebut the presumption that the assessor is correct.
- Use generally accepted appraisal methods, because the burden of proof is on you by a preponderance of the evidence.
