Maumelle is a planned community on the Arkansas River northwest of Little Rock, popular with young families and professionals who want suburban space within commuting distance of the capital. Its well-maintained planned neighborhoods and newer construction create assessment challenges that Pulaski County's models frequently handle imprecisely. TaxAppeal files your formal protest with the Pulaski County Assessor — backed by comparable sales data and certified mail — for a flat $89.
Arkansas assesses property at 20% of fair market value — when that estimate is wrong, you overpay every year until you appeal.
The Pulaski County Assessor values thousands of properties using statistical models that apply broad market trends across entire neighborhoods. Your home's specific condition, lot features, and location nuances are often missed — leading to inflated assessments that cost you money every year.
With a median home value of $270,000 in Maumelle, even a 5% over-assessment means roughly $16 in excess annual taxes. Appealing is one of the highest-ROI decisions a Pulaski County homeowner can make.
Under Ark. Code §26-27-317, every Pulaski County homeowner can protest before the Board of Equalization by the third Monday in August. Miss that window and you wait a full year. TaxAppeal handles the evidence, letter, and certified mail filing.

The Pulaski County Board of Equalization (BOE) is a three-member panel appointed by the county judge. It hears valuation protests in August and is an informal process — you present evidence and the BOE decides.
Arkansas residential property is assessed at 20% of fair market value. So the fight is really about the market value estimate — every dollar of reduction at market value translates directly to a lower tax bill.
Amendment 79 caps homestead assessment increases at 5% per year, regardless of how much the market rises. For homeowners age 65 and older, the assessed value is frozen entirely — it cannot increase as long as you remain in your home.
Even with Amendment 79 protection, appealing makes sense: a successful appeal lowers your base value, which reduces the ceiling that future 5% increases compound from — and can unlock additional savings every year. TaxAppeal reviews your current assessed value alongside your Amendment 79 history before filing.
Most Arkansas property tax appeal firms charge a percentage of your first-year savings — every year.
