About the Coffee Creek Property Market
Coffee Creek is a city located in Fergus County, Montana. Every property inside the Coffee Creek city limits is assessed by the Fergus County assessor, which applies Montana property tax rules uniformly across the county.
Because Coffee Creek property values are set at the county level, the same assessment rules apply to homes throughout the city. Homeowners who believe their Coffee Creek home is over-assessed have the right to file a appeal directly with Fergus County.
Montana allows the assessor to defend or adjust the assessed value during a appeal, so Coffee Creek homeowners should build a strong evidence-based case before filing — which is exactly what ProtestMax generates for $45.
Coffee Creek Property Market Context
The property tax picture in Coffee Creek is shaped as much by Montana statewide policy as by anything unique to a city.
Montana market character
Montana reassesses on a two-year cycle, and the state saw historic 40%+ appreciation in the 2023 cycle that produced widespread sticker-shock notices. Bozeman, Missoula, and resort areas have been the epicenter of over-assessments.
How Montana handles appeals
Montana homeowners file an informal review (AB-26) with the Department of Revenue, then appeal to the County Tax Appeal Board, then the Montana Tax Appeal Board. The state is responsive to comparable sales evidence.
When to file in Coffee Creek
AB-26 must be filed within 30 days of receiving the assessment notice — typically July or August depending on county.
