About the Jamestown Property Market
Jamestown is a city located in Boone County, Indiana. Every property inside the Jamestown city limits is assessed by the Boone County assessor, which applies Indiana property tax rules uniformly across the county.
Because Jamestown property values are set at the county level, the same assessment rules apply to homes throughout the city. Homeowners who believe their Jamestown home is over-assessed have the right to file a appeal directly with Boone County.
Indiana allows the assessor to defend or adjust the assessed value during a appeal, so Jamestown homeowners should build a strong evidence-based case before filing — which is exactly what ProtestMax generates for $45.
Jamestown Property Market Context
Jamestown sits within Indiana's broader property tax landscape as a city, and local assessments reflect both state rules and county-level mass appraisal practices.
Indiana market character
Indiana uses a cap of 1% of gross assessed value on homesteads (the "circuit breaker"), which limits tax bills but does not limit the underlying assessment. Over-assessments still matter because they affect other taxing jurisdictions and future sales.
How Indiana handles appeals
Indiana homeowners file a Form 130 appeal with the county assessor, then the Property Tax Assessment Board of Appeals (PTABOA), then the Indiana Board of Tax Review. The state is protest-friendly and has a clear process.
When to file in Jamestown
Appeals are due by June 15 of the year the taxes are payable (so appeal the 2026 bill by June 15, 2026). Don't miss this deadline — it's annual and strict.
Common Jamestown Property Types
Jamestown homeowners typically file protests across these property categories:
Single-family homes
The most common residential type and the dominant protest category.
Condominiums

Townhouses
Attached-home neighborhoods in newer subdivisions.
Small multi-family
Duplexes and 2-4 unit buildings assessed as income property.
