Assessment appeals and correction requests
For a current year assessment dispute, a taxpayer may request an informal conference with the township assessing official. The request should explain why the assessed value is disputed and include the parcel number, property address, owner name, and contact information.
If the township assessor denies the appeal, the matter goes to the county Property Tax Assessment Board of Appeals. A later appeal may be made to the Indiana Board of Tax Review.
A Petition for Correction of Error, Form 133, may be submitted to the County Auditor for objective issues such as illegal taxes, math errors, or missing exemption or deduction credit. Review the county’s tax assessment appeal process before filing.

Delaware County posts tax sale information through the Treasurer’s Office. The Fall Tax Sale 2025 is listed for October 15 at 10:00 AM at the Delaware County Fairgrounds Heartland Hall, 1210 N. Wheeling Ave., Muncie, IN 47303.
Pre-registration is required online through the auction website for the listed Delaware County tax lien sale. The county also notes that the property list is available approximately 30 days before the sale and that the GIS map of sale properties is updated once a week before the sale.
