Fort Smith is Arkansas's second-largest city and an industrial hub. Sebastian County homeowners can challenge over-assessments every August at the Board of Equalization, and Ark. Code §26-27-317 sets the deadline at the third Monday in August. We are not filing Arkansas appeals ourselves this season — we open for 2027.
We are not filing Arkansas appeals this season. We will be filing for the 2027 season, and we will email you the day it opens so you have time to get yours in.
Sebastian County uses periodic mass-reappraisal cycles that sometimes produce assessed values misaligned with current market conditions — especially for older homes, properties with deferred maintenance, or neighborhoods that have not appreciated as fast as county-wide averages.
If your home's market value is overstated by Sebastian County, your assessed value (20% of market) is inflated by the same percentage — and so is your tax bill.
Arkansas has one fixed statewide deadline: the third Monday in August. Miss it and you wait a full year — and the 2026 date has already passed.
Most Arkansas consultants charge 25-40% of savings. On a $1,000 reduction that's up to $400 gone. When we open for the 2027 season our fee will be a flat $89.
Four minutes of your time. You sign it, we do the rest.
We pull your Sebastian County property data — assessed value, square footage, year built, and comparable sales.
Our system generates a professional appeal letter citing Arkansas Code §26-27-317 and §26-26-1901 with comparable sales from your area.
Your appeal is mailed to the Sebastian County Board of Equalization secretary via USPS certified mail before the third Monday in August.
The Sebastian County Board of Equalization deadline is the third Monday in August and it goes by quietly. Leave your email and we will tell you the day filing opens, with time to spare.

TaxAppeal USA is a self-service document-preparation and mail filing service. 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 represent customers before any appraisal district, board of equalization, value adjustment board, or review board. Every protest and petition is prepared for the property owner, signed by the owner, and filed in the owner’s name. In Florida we also pay your county’s Value Adjustment Board filing fee on your behalf and mail your petition to the Clerk of the Value Adjustment Board. Your petition is signed by you as the property owner under section 194.011(3), Florida Statutes. TaxAppeal USA does not sign as your representative, does not appear before the Board, and does not present evidence or argument at a hearing.
