2026 Property Tax Bills
The 2026 property tax bill season is right around the corner. Our office has been working to correct reported address changes and update homestead and disability exemptions.
The PVA Office uses deed transfer information to create the property tax roll. It is important that you report any change of address to ensure prompt delivery of your 2026 tax bill.
Verify Your Mailing Address
We encourage you to check and verify that we have your correct mailing address on file. You can view your owner and mailing address information by visiting www.garrardpva.com.
From the homepage:
Select the Layers tab.
Click Property Search.
Review the owner and mailing address information for your property.
Key Points and Dates
Bills are printed to the owner of record as of January 1.
If a property is sold after January 1, the tax bill may be mailed C/O the new owner at the address on file.
If you have not previously applied and are 65 years of age or older, own and occupy your home as your personal residence, you may be eligible for the homestead exemption of up to $49,100.
If you have not previously applied and are 100% disabled through a governmental agency, railroad, or other qualified organization, you may be eligible for the disability exemption of up to $49,100.
Escrow and Mortgage Payments
Mortgage companies and banks often use escrow services to pay property taxes. Normally, these escrow companies pay accounts in bulk through the Garrard County Sheriff's Office.
However, the tax bill remains the responsibility of the property owner. We recommend visiting www.garrard.kysheriff.org by November 1, 2026, to verify that your bill has been paid and to ensure you receive any applicable discount for timely payment.
We make every effort to keep our records as accurate and up to date as possible. If you have corrections, concerns, or questions, we would be happy to schedule a meeting or speak with you by phone.
We appreciate the opportunity to serve the residents of Garrard County and look forward to assisting you.
