MECKLENBURG COUNTY, NC — As property appraisal staff work to canvass the county, officials are telling property owners to be on the lookout for scammers.
Official county workers will identify themselves as county appraisers, according to officials, and will have county-issued identification cards. The county appraisers will also be driving marked county vehicles, and typically wear shirts with the Assessor’s Office logo.
The county says workers will NOT ask to enter your home. Interior viewings are by appointment only and officials say two employees will always be present.
Anyone with questions about County appraisers on their property should call 704 336-7600 to verify their identity.
The County Assessor’s Office also posts the neighborhoods where appraisers will be working that week. You can find the list at mecknc.gov/assessorsoffice. Residents of those neighborhoods will also be notified through the Nextdoor online social network.
