A hot housing market is fueling an increase in appraised property values in Marshall County this year. Sale prices on new and existing homes have experienced large increases nationally and Marshall County is no exception, county appraiser Francine Crome said Tuesday. The county’s total appraised values in 2022 were $880,728,700, an increase of more than $42 million over 2021’s total of $838,522,620. The total includes commercial, residential, agricultural and exempt properties. Crome plans to meet with county commissioners Monday to discuss the latest figures in more detail. Her office sent out 9,922 annual appraisal notices to county property owners March 1. “Everything went up due to the market,” Crome said, adding that the national trend in home prices had “definitely impacted us as well.”
