Fairfield County Auditor’s Office Releases Tentative Property Valuations and Announces Meetings to Review Valuations

July 10, 2025

Lancaster, Ohio – The Fairfield County Auditor’s Office has completed the state-mandated sexennial review and updates for property valuations. By Ohio law, the Auditor’s Office is required to perform a sexennial update (every six years) to identify fair market value of real property.

The state oversees the sexennial update, which considers valid sales that have occurred over the prior three years. With standardized methods and statistical analysis, a property’s fair market value has been identified. These values will vary among neighborhoods based on market conditions.

Property owners can view the valuation of their property at realestate.co.fairfield.oh.us. Additionally, notifications of these valuations will be mailed to residential property owners in July.

Residential property owners who believe the valuation needs to be adjusted because the fair market value is not accurately represented may schedule a time to meet with a member of the County Auditor’s staff. Meetings will be held over the phone and in person in multiple locations throughout the county. Meetings can be scheduled here: https://book.appointment-plus.com/d83qkv46/#/.

A flyer outlining the available days and times for meetings is attached. Also, helpful information about how to prepare for a meeting is attached.

In addition, there are three videos available regarding the role of the appraiser, the calculation of property taxes, and the Board of Revision process. You can use the QR codes in the attachment to view the videos or can visit the website at realestate.co.fairfield.oh.us.
