Pulaski County Arkansas Property Tax Appeal Guide 2027

Complete guide to appealing your Pulaski County, Arkansas property taxes in 2027. Board of Equalization deadline is August 16, 2027. Ready-to-sign appeal kit from TaxAppeal USA: $89 flat.

Pulaski County is the most populous county in Arkansas, home to Little Rock, North Little Rock, Jacksonville, Sherwood, and Maumelle — nearly 400,000 residents in the state's largest metropolitan area. The Pulaski County Assessor is one of the highest-volume assessment offices in the state, valuing hundreds of thousands of parcels annually using mass-appraisal methods. Like all mass-appraisal systems, Pulaski County's models apply neighborhood-level averages that cannot account for individual property characteristics — specific condition issues, location penalties, or improvements the assessor's data does not reflect. The result: a meaningful percentage of Pulaski County homeowners are assessed above their property's fair market value. The 2027 Board of Equalization deadline is August 16, 2027.

Pulaski County Property Tax Assessment: The Basics

The Pulaski County Assessor determines the fair market value of your property as of January 1, 2027. Arkansas then taxes you on 20% of that estimated market value — the assessed value. Your tax bill is calculated by multiplying your assessed value by the applicable millage rate for your school district, city, and county. If the Pulaski County Assessor overestimates your fair market value, every layer of taxes built on top of that estimate is also inflated.

  • ✓Assessment date: January 1, 2027
  • ✓Assessment ratio: 20% of fair market value
  • ✓Tax bill = assessed value x total millage rate (school + city + county)
  • ✓Amendment 79 caps homestead value increases at 5% per year
  • ✓Senior freeze: Age 65+ homeowners can freeze their assessed value

The 2027 Pulaski County Appeal Deadline

The Pulaski County Board of Equalization deadline is August 16, 2027 — the third Monday in August. Per Arkansas Code §26-27-317, your appeal must be postmarked by this date. Pulaski County currently does not offer online filing for property tax appeals — you must submit your appeal letter or petition by mail or in person to the Board of Equalization Secretary at the Assessor's Office. TaxAppeal USA's kit includes a return envelope addressed to the Board of Equalization Secretary; you sign it and mail it.

Evidence That Works at Pulaski County Board of Equalization Hearings

The Pulaski County Board of Equalization wants to see hard data that supports a different market value than the assessor assigned. The strongest evidence packages combine multiple types of support.

  • ✓Comparable sales: 3-5 similar homes in Little Rock or your specific neighborhood that sold for less than your assessed market value in the 12 months before January 1, 2027
  • ✓Recent purchase price: If you bought your home after January 2024 for less than your assessed value, your purchase contract is powerful evidence
  • ✓Independent appraisal: A licensed Arkansas appraiser's opinion of value carries significant weight
  • ✓Property condition: Photos and contractor estimates for roof, HVAC, foundation, or other issues
  • ✓Assessment data errors: If the assessor has your square footage, bedroom count, or lot size wrong, documenting the error often results in an immediate correction

TaxAppeal USA is a self-service document-preparation service. We prepare a ready-to-sign appeal kit and mail it to you; you sign it and mail it to the county yourself. In every state we serve, including Florida, we are not property tax consultants, agents, or representatives, we do not provide tax or legal advice, and we do not file appeals or represent customers before any appraisal district, board of assessors, board of equalization, value adjustment board, or review board. Every appeal, protest and petition is prepared for the property owner, signed by the owner, and mailed by the owner in the owner’s name. In Florida your petition is signed by you as the property owner under section 194.011(3), Florida Statutes, and the county’s Value Adjustment Board filing fee is paid by you directly to the county. TaxAppeal USA does not sign as your representative, does not appear before the Board, and does not present evidence or argument at a hearing.
