Hamilton County home values have gone up an average of around 60% in the past four years, according to the county’s assessor.

Commercial property values have also risen around 50% since the last reappraisal was completed in 2021, Assessor of Property Marty Haynes said.

The jump in value, an average of 55% across the board, is the largest the county has seen since local reappraisals began in Hamilton County in 1989, Haynes said.

“And that’s across the state,” Haynes said by phone, “not just here in Hamilton County.”
