Senior relief

Shelby County states that the 2026 tax year payable in 2027 uses a $41,000 Ohio income threshold, with up to $29,000 of appraised value for the standard homestead benefit and up to $58,000 for eligible disabled veterans. Qualifying applicants are age 65 or older, permanently and totally disabled, or surviving spouses; they must own and occupy the home January 1 and file by December 31.

Valuation limits

No general countywide parcel-value cap was published. Ohio real property is assessed at 35% of market value, with sexennial reappraisals and triennial updates; HB 920 reduction factors and the 20-mill floor limit voted-levy revenue growth. Effective March 20, 2026, HB 186 creates an Inflation Cap Credit for qualifying school-district/JVS levy revenue growth; it is a tax credit/collection limitation, not a general cap on appraised or taxable parcel value.

For a valuation appeal, use the appeal date in the tax and filing section above. Keep your notice, supporting evidence, and proof of submission.
