About Property Taxes in Arkansas
Arkansas property taxes are among the lowest in the country. Property is administered at the county level, with the county assessor setting values and the county collector billing and collecting taxes. Residential property is assessed at 20% of its true market value — so a $200,000 home has an assessed value of $40,000 before exemptions. Tax bills are mailed in the fall and are due October 15. Arkansas also taxes personal property (vehicles, equipment) on the same schedule as real property.
Payment & Assessment
Arkansas property taxes are due October 15 each year. A 10% penalty applies to taxes paid after October 15. After the end of the year, delinquent taxes may be certified to the State Land Commissioner, and the property can eventually be subject to forfeiture proceedings. Most counties accept payment online through the county collector's website, by mail, and in person. Partial payments are generally not accepted.
