Board of Assessors

The Ware County Board of Assessors (BOA) is a five-member board appointed by the County Commissioners. We manage the information for some twenty-five thousand parcels of real property and five thousand personal property accounts in Ware County. We are responsible for ensuring the fair market value of all property in Ware County. Fair market value is defined as the amount a knowledgeable buyer would pay for a property and a knowledgeable seller would accept for a property in an "arm's-length" sale.
