Real Estate Appraisers |
An appraisal is a method established by Kansas statute to determine a property owner's share of taxes that support schools, roads, health and human service programs, parks, and police and fire protection. The County Appraiser is responsible for discovering, listing, and uniformly valuing property.
Routine work will continue throughout Finney County, such as the review of recent sale properties and parcels with building permits.
Finney County Appraiser's Office personnel can be identified by Finney County photo identification badges and will be driving vehicles marked with the Finney County logo.
Property owners with questions may contact the Finney County Appraiser's Office at 620-272-3517.
