Assessor Responsibilities
The Sabine Parish Assessor is responsible for discovery, listing, and valuing all property in Sabine Parish for ad valorem tax purposes. This property includes all Real Estate, all Business Movable Property (Personal Property), and all Oil & Gas Property and Equipment. The Assessor is responsible to the citizens of Sabine Parish for ensuring all property is assessed in a fair and equitable manner. At the same time, the Assessor is responsible for ensuring that assessments are calculated according to the Constitution of the State of Louisiana and the Revised Statutes that are passed by the Legislature. In Louisiana, “Ad Valorem”, by value, is the method to calculate taxes. The Assessor does not establish the “taxes”. Taxes are approved by the voters in the form of millage propositions on the ballot.

2024 Important Dates
***Please look for a value letter from this office in mid to late July. This is a required notice to let you know about changes to your assessment. This is a good time to call or come into the office to discuss your assessment. It is our goal to accurately assess your property, however, we use mass appraisal; which means not every parcel is looked at individually.***
