West Virginia Property Tax
All real and tangible personal property, with limited exceptions, is subject to property tax.
Owners of property, except for owners of public service business property, who wish to protest the assessed value of their property must file a protest with their county commission sitting as a board of equalization and review that begins meeting for this purpose on February 1 each year before the property taxes are due for that year.
Property taxes are levied by county boards of education, county commissions, municipalities, and the State.
When the owner of property and the county assessor disagree over the classification of property or the taxability of property, the question may be submitted to the Tax Commissioner for ruling as provided in West Virginia Code ยง 11-3-24a. Source
