The Indiana Department of Local Government Finance (DLGF) offers an abundance of information regarding current legislation and tax policy. DLGF Overview
The term “Improvement” refers to your house, structure, or other improvements to the raw land. These are not necessarily improvements that have been added during the current year.
For more information on the Notice of Assessment of Land and Improvements (Form 11), please visit the Department of Local Government Finance (DLGF) .
Assessed values are established as of January 1 of the tax year. To determine a property’s value on that date, sales information from the prior year is reviewed.
Ratio studies are conducted to ensure uniformity and equity of assessments in a mass appraisal system. For more information, visit the DLGF.
Real property in Indiana is assessed at Market Value in Use. Distress sales such as tax sales, foreclosures, or short sales are typically not representative of market value.
Please see the first paragraph on the following webpage: Tax Bill 101 .
If the Form 11 Notice of Assessment is mailed before May 1, the filing deadline is June 15 of that year.
If the Form 11 is mailed after April 30, the filing deadline is June 15 of the year tax statements are mailed.
Indiana Code reference: IC 6‑1.1‑15‑1.1
Contact your County or Township Assessor for the status of active appeals.
Assessed values reflect the market and are trended on an annual basis. Actual taxes may vary based on local approved tax rates, referendums, or individual circumstances.
Assessed values fluctuate with the market. An arm’s‑length sale is a significant factor in determining market trends and may affect future assessed values.
Sales information can be obtained here, or through the Department of Local Government Finance website by clicking here .
During reassessment, field agents inspect the exterior of properties and may interview owners for interior information. If no one is available, a door hanger is left. This information helps ensure accurate assessments.
During statewide reassessments, assessors inspect properties to verify size and features. This ensures properties are accurately and fairly assessed.
For recording questions, please contact the Randolph County Recorder’s Office .
State tax lien questions should be directed to the County Clerk’s Office .
Federal tax lien questions should be directed to the County Recorder’s Office .
Probate and estate filings should be directed to the County Clerk’s Office .

The State of Indiana provides guidance related to Agricultural Land Assessment. Base rates per acre are provided by the State and applied to each parcel. The Land Rate is then adjusted based on use (tillable, non-tillable, etc.) and recorded soil types (An, Pn, etc.). Any use that incorporates "open" ditches and/or Right-of-Way will be adjusted to a "0" value. The placement of land into a useful type of "Classified Lands" must first meet the requirements and application process of the Indiana DNR
The current Assessed Base Rate set by the State of Indiana for ALL AG Land within the State—not just your local ag land—showed an increase of 4.82% based on the sales, rental value, and income from corn. However, due to the recent passing of SB-1, AG Land was reassessed to achieve a decrease of 12% from the original 2025 value.
The Average Sale Price (ASP) per acre for agricultural land increased by 150.69% since 2020 with a 5.69% decrease projected for 2025:
It is projected, based on the value increases each year since 2017, that the ASP per acre of Farm Ground, in Randolph County, could reach $25,000 by 2028. However, this could be adjusted or affected by the lack of inventory and availability at that time.

All businesses, churches, and not-for-profit organizations must file business tangible personal property forms with the assessor’s office each year, even if qualified for an exemption.
Business tangible personal property is the value of all property besides real estate that is used in your business or organization. It includes equipment used in the production of income or held as an investment; billboards; foundations for the equipment; and all other tangible property other than real property. Computer application software is considered an intangible asset and is not assessable. Inventory is no longer taxed.
Licensed motor vehicles, trailers, motorized boats, most airplanes, campers, recreational vehicles, and other registered vehicles that are subject to excise tax collected at the time of licensure by the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles are not subject to personal property tax.
If the total cost of all the personal property that your business owns in the county is less than $2,000,000, then you may be eligible for a business personal property exemption. To qualify for this exemption, you need to fill out all the necessary forms and check the box at the top of either Form 103-Long, Form 103-Short, or Form 102, indicating that the value of your assets is under $2,000,00.
When can we begin our yearly filing?
You can begin your filing as soon as 2 January as long as the State has provided any new changes to forms or added any new forms by then. It is best to call the Assessor’s Office (765-584-2427) to ensure we can accept forms.

Beginning January 1, 2026, personal property tax returns may no longer be filed through PPOP-IN.
While no new filings will be accepted after 2025, the Indiana Department of Local Government Finance (DLGF) plans to maintain access to PPOP-IN after January 1, 2026.

If you own a property in Randolph County, you will get a Notice of Assessment (Form 11) in May of each year with exceptions placed on commercial, industrial, and AG or vacant property. This is due to the Market Analysis of sales. You have the right to appeal the assessment if you disagree with it. However, from January 1, 2024, the last day for appeal will be June 15. Note that there is proposed legislation to impose a fee or charge for the filing of any appeal, and it will be mandatory to attach a Power of Attorney within the last two years. Also, taxpayers must provide evidence to support their appeal.
An appeal begins with completing page 1 and filing Form 130 – Taxpayer’s Notice to Initiate an Appeal with the local Assessing Official. The appeal shall detail and or have evidence attached to explain the claim that the assessed value (not the taxes) is being disputed. A taxpayer shall only appeal the TOTAL Valuation of a property, not just a portion of it. None of the following are grounds for appeal.
As assessments are based on the Sales Market Trend, Income, or if new the overall Cost of the structure, your tax increase or decrease is based on the local jurisdiction establishing a budget and taking a portion of your value to subsidize the product albeit Public Safety, Schools, Local payroll, etc. The percentage taken or placed upon your value is the same for everyone in the taxing district.
A taxpayer may only request a review of the current year’s assessed valuation. Following an informal conference with the local assessing official, the assessor will make a recommendation either denying or approving the appeal. If denied, the appeal will be forwarded to the county Property Tax Assessment Board of Appeals (PTABOA) for review. If the PTABOA denies the appeal, instructions will be provided on appealing the decision to the Indiana Board of Tax Review (IBTR). After being heard by the IBTR, taxpayers may also seek review by the Indiana Tax Court.
Appraisals are accepted however, are not required. If an appraisal is submitted, it must be the complete document and not just the valuation page and shall NOT be considered the final value as all appraisals are based on the scope of the appraisal set forth by the client and as such; will be reviewed following the National Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practices and Mass Appraisal guidelines. It must also be noted and understood that just because the bank gives the owner a copy of the appraisal if the owner is not listed as the client, the value may not be considered valid.
For an Assessor to provide the lowest of the three assessment models (Sales, Income, and Cost) If you have a Rental Property, only the submission of a CURRENTLY SIGNED LEASE will be accepted to reflect Income Value.
A taxpayer can still file an appeal concerning “objective” issues (i.e., factual matters, such as the property record card containing an incorrect description of the property, like a garage that does not exist); however, it is on page 2 of Form 130.
An objective appeal issue may include:
It must also be understood that when an appeal is filed, ALL aspects of the parcel will be reviewed and considered in the appeal. An appeal is NOT a guarantee that the assessed value will be reduced. This is why the presentation of evidence is crucial to your opinion of value.

Township sales are handled the same, in that they only affect that Township/Tax District.

Meetings are held in the County Commissioners' Chambers, located on the 2nd floor of the Old Randolph County Hospital, and begin at 9:00 am.
Date is to be determined based on the number of appeals, but no later than 60 days from the last day to submit an appeal.
Taxpayers who choose to go directly to the PTABOA or do not reach an agreement on their valuation with the County Assessor will receive
notification of their hearing date and time no later than 30 days before the scheduled hearing. To ensure a fair and efficient process, any
documentation intended to support the current valuation—whether based on previous evidence or new information—must be submitted to the Assessor
at least 10 working days before the hearing. This early submission allows the Assessor to review the information and make necessary adjustments
to address the taxpayer's concerns or prepare a response for the hearing.
The Indiana Board of Tax Review ("IBTR") is the state agency charged with deciding property tax assessment appeals. The IBTR addresses appeals contesting
real and personal property assessments. It also addresses appeals concerning property tax exemptions, deductions, and credits. The IBTR, however, lacks
jurisdiction to address appeals where taxpayers contest only their tax bill and not their property's assessment.
A taxpayer who disagrees with the PTABOA’s determination may petition the IBTR to review that determination. The taxpayer must file his or her petition no
later than 45 days after the PTABOA gives notice of its determination. A direct appeal to the IBTR may be available if the maximum time has passed since
the appeal was filed and the PTABOA has not issued a determination, or if there is an agreement to waive the PTABOA determination and appeal directly to the
IBTR.

Randolph County, Indiana, has made significant strides in alternative energy production, particularly in wind and solar energy. Here's an overview of its contributions:
Combined, these projects contribute approximately 398 MW to Indiana's wind energy capacity while taking approximately 161.56 acres out of AG production. Given that Indiana's total wind capacity was around 3,148 MW as of mid-2021, Randolph County's contribution is notable, considering a working plan of another 200 MW production in Headwaters III.
Along the northern edges of the County, there are 16 turbines from the Bluff Point Wind Project out of Jay County. These 16 turbines use up 10.72 acres of AG Land.
While specific county-by-county rankings for renewable energy production in Indiana are not readily available, Randolph County's substantial contributions in both wind and solar energy position the County as a leading county in the state's alternative energy landscape.
If you have questions or seek more information than what is provided, please contact the Assessor.
