About the Bim Property Market
Bim is a city located in Boone County, West Virginia. Every property inside the Bim city limits is assessed by the Boone County assessor, which applies West Virginia property tax rules uniformly across the county.
Because Bim property values are set at the county level, the same assessment rules apply to homes throughout the city. Homeowners who believe their Bim home is over-assessed have the right to file a appeal directly with Boone County.
West Virginia allows the assessor to defend or adjust the assessed value during a appeal, so Bim homeowners should build a strong evidence-based case before filing — which is exactly what ProtestMax generates for $45.
Bim Property Market Context
Bim homeowners navigate the same West Virginia assessment system as every other community in the state, but local market dynamics mean over-assessments here have their own character.
West Virginia market character
West Virginia has the second-lowest effective property tax rates in the country at around 0.5%, and residential property is assessed at 60% of true and actual value. Despite low rates, mass appraisal inconsistencies still produce protest-worthy cases.
How West Virginia handles appeals
West Virginia homeowners appeal to the County Commission sitting as the Board of Equalization and Review, then Circuit Court. The process is straightforward but has a narrow window.
When to file in Bim
The Board of Equalization and Review meets in February. File your appeal to be heard during this session — after it adjourns, your value is locked.

Single-family homes
