About the Raymond Property Market
Raymond is a city located in Hinds County, Mississippi. Every property inside the Raymond city limits is assessed by Hinds County Tax Assessor, which applies Mississippi property tax rules uniformly across the county.
Because Raymond property values are set at the county level, the $130,000 county median home value and 1.17% effective tax rate apply to homes throughout the city. Homeowners who believe their Raymond home is over-assessed have the right to file a appeal directly with Hinds County Tax Assessor before the First Monday in April deadline.
Mississippi allows the assessor to defend or adjust the assessed value during a appeal, so Raymond homeowners should build a strong evidence-based case before filing — which is exactly what ProtestMax generates for $45.
Raymond Property Market Context
The property tax picture in Raymond is shaped as much by Mississippi statewide policy as by anything unique to a city.
Mississippi market character
Mississippi residential property is assessed at 10% of true value, and effective tax rates hover around 0.8%. Mass appraisal quality varies significantly between counties, with coastal and Jackson-area markets showing the most assessment inconsistencies.
How Mississippi handles appeals
Mississippi homeowners appeal to the county Board of Supervisors sitting as the Board of Equalization, then to Circuit Court. The process is written into state statute and is procedurally straightforward.
When to file in Raymond
The Board of Equalization meets in August (first Monday). Objections must be filed before or during this session.
