I realize there has been a lot of discussion in regards to prices paid for land and rental fees, that may or may not have happened, so I felt the need to be fully transparent in respects to deriving assessed value in Richland Parish.
High land sale prices cannot be considered for assessment purposes when they are determined to be isolated and not reflective of arm’s length transactions. As such, under current statutes and appraisal guidelines, these sales cannot be used in deriving fair market value in the context of the tax assessor’s mass appraisal process.
However, for revenue-producing properties such as rental units or trailer parks, a different valuation approach may apply. These types of properties typically fall under the income approach, where rental income and operational expenses are analyzed. Even so, all three recognized approaches to value—cost, sales comparison, and income—should be considered where applicable, in order to ensure a well-supported and equitable valuation.
If you have any questions or concerns you can always call us at your Assessor’s Office at 318-728-4491.

It is with a heavy heart that I express my sincere sympathy to Judy, and as Gary Gilley would say the girls. He would always have a story to tell me about his grand daughters . Gary loved his family and as I was so fortunate to be around him right next door to my office he shared his joy that each of you gave him. Mrs Ida , Donna, and Lisa my heart goes out to you as well . Words seem to fail me at this time, and I pray your sorrow is replaced with pleasant memories of my friend and Sheriff. I also know his RPSO officers are overwhelmed with grief. Please know that you are not alone in this journey, and your Sheriff was so very proud of you. My thoughts and prayers are not only for those that I have mentioned, but also for our Parish as we have lost a man that served us so well . As I walk the hall in the courthouse to my office his chair at his desk is empty its a sobering feeling that things are just not going to be same here . God bless us and be with us in our time of need.
