Property tax bills are not mailed to mortgage companies. If a mortgage company pays the taxes, the property owner is responsible for confirming that the taxes have been paid.

The Baldwin County Property Tax Calculator can estimate property tax using the tax district, property classification, appraised value, and homestead exemption selection. To find the tax district, search for the property on the county property search website first.

Use the Baldwin County property tax calculator when you need an estimate based on the property information available from the Revenue Commission.

  • Tax district
  • Property classification, such as Class II or Class III

Assessments and exemptions

The Assessment Department assesses property and helps property owners claim proper tax exemptions. Property owners are responsible for making sure information in the tax assessment office is accurate and up to date.

Any additions or deletions to property must be recorded by October 1 to be assessed by December 31. When buying property or changing property details, review the county’s assessment information.

Homestead exemptions are available only on a primary residence, and the applicant cannot have a homestead exemption on another home. Current Use applications must be filed with the Revenue Office no later than December 31 for the exemption to apply in the following tax year.

Protests and valuation notices

Property owners who disagree with an appraised value may file a written appeal with the Baldwin County Board of Equalization. Protests must be filed in writing and signed by the property owner or representative; protests are not taken by phone.

For the listed 2026 protest cycle, the notice date is March 17, 2026, and the final appeal date is April 17, 2026. Protest information must include the PPIN and parcel number, contact phone number, email address if available, and supporting information.
