About the Plummer Property Market

Plummer is a city located in Benewah County, Idaho. Every property inside the Plummer city limits is assessed by the Benewah County assessor, which applies Idaho property tax rules uniformly across the county.

Because Plummer property values are set at the county level, the same assessment rules apply to homes throughout the city. Homeowners who believe their Plummer home is over-assessed have the right to file a appeal directly with Benewah County.

Idaho allows the assessor to defend or adjust the assessed value during a appeal, so Plummer homeowners should build a strong evidence-based case before filing — which is exactly what ProtestMax generates for $45.

Idaho market character

Idaho has seen some of the fastest home value appreciation in the country — Boise, Coeur d'Alene, and Idaho Falls have all recorded double-digit annual gains. Effective tax rates are moderate (~0.6%), but rapid appreciation means the dollar impact of an over-assessment is large.

How Idaho handles appeals

Idaho homeowners appeal first to the county Board of Equalization, then the State Board of Tax Appeals or District Court. Assessed value cannot be increased as a result of filing an appeal.

When to file in Plummer

Notices mail by the first Monday in June. Appeals must be filed by the fourth Monday in June — roughly a three-week window.
