Delta County Assessor Jolene George discovers, lists, classifies and values real and personal property throughout Delta County, Colorado. The office also maintains parcel ownership and mapping information from transactions recorded by the Clerk & Recorder.

The county’s official EagleWeb property database lets you search by account number, parcel number, owner, business, situs address, subdivision/legal description and Section-Township-Range. A separate sales search can locate transactions by sale date, sale price and neighborhood information.

For 2026, Delta County is in the intervening year of Colorado’s 2025–2026 reappraisal cycle. The normal real-property appeal deadline was June 8 and the business-personal-property appeal period ended June 30. Taxes being collected during calendar 2026 are generally the 2025 taxes, while the 2026 assessment will feed the bill payable in 2027.

What Delta County Property Owners Need to Know Now

The ordinary 2026 real-property and business-personal-property protest periods have ended. Delta County accepted 2026 real-property valuation appeals through June 8 and business-personal-property appeals through June 30.
2026 is not a new general reappraisal Colorado’s general reappraisal occurred for tax year 2025. Tax year 2026 is the second, intervening year of that same cycle.
2025 tax deadlines are over Taxes collected during 2026 are generally the 2025 taxes. The February, April 30 and June 15 ordinary payment dates have passed.
2026 mill levies are not one fixed county rate Taxing authorities set parcel-specific mill levies in the fall. The 2026 assessment becomes the basis for taxes payable in 2027.
New law effective today: Colorado SB26-046 takes effect August 12, 2026. It changes the standard real-property protest deadline from June 8 to June 1 for future cycles and aligns several senior/veteran exemption deadlines. It does not reopen Delta County’s already-completed 2026 real-property protest period.
Three property questions — three offices

Assessor vs Treasurer vs Clerk & Recorder

Assessor — Jolene George Parcel records, actual value, classification, assessed value, property characteristics, sales research, agricultural classification, severed-mineral accounts, personal property and valuation appeals.
Treasurer & Public Trustee — Lisa J. Tafoya Current tax amount, property-tax history, receipt copies, payment, delinquency, tax-lien sale, Treasurer’s deeds and foreclosure/Public Trustee functions.
Clerk & Recorder — Teri A. Stephenson Deeds, plats, liens, easements, recorded instruments, recording copies and the county’s free Fraud Notify service.
A high tax bill is not automatically an Assessor error. The Assessor establishes value and classification; taxing entities establish mill levies; the Treasurer collects the resulting tax.

What Delta County Assessor Fields Mean

Field Meaning What to do
Account Number Assessor account identifier such as an R-series real-property account. Save it for repeat EagleWeb searches and office questions.
Parcel Number Numeric parcel identifier tied to the mapped land. Use it to distinguish similarly named owners or nearby addresses.
Actual Value Assessor’s value before the statutory assessment-rate calculation. This is the central value in most real-property valuation protests.
Classification Residential, agricultural, commercial, vacant, industrial, personal property or another statutory class. Classification controls assessment treatment.
Assessed Value Value after applying the applicable statutory assessment rate. Residential accounts now require separate school and non-school calculations.
Tax Area / Mill Levy Combination of taxing entities serving the parcel. Use the parcel-specific combination—not a countywide average.
Legal Description Assessment description of the property. Use the recorded deed or plat when exact legal title matters.
Sales / Reception Prior transaction information associated with the account. Use book/page or reception clues to locate the recorded instrument.
2025 general reappraisal • 2026 intervening year

How Delta County 2026 Real Property Values Were Built

Residential study starts Normal 2025–26 residential/vacant-land data-gathering period begins.
Appraisal level Eligible 2025–26 market sales generally stop at June 30, 2024.
General reappraisal All real property moves to the new biennial appraisal level.
Intervening year Value generally carries forward unless a statutory/property change requires adjustment.

Delta County states that residential property for the 2025–2026 cycle is valued using the market approach. Its residential and vacant-land sales period runs from July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2024. Commercial data collection began earlier, on January 1, 2022.

Improved residential Colorado requires the market approach for improved residential property.
Nonresidential Market, cost and income approaches can be considered where appropriate.
Intervening-year changes New construction, demolition, remodels, corrected characteristics, classification changes or certain ownership/use events can change an account in 2026.
Do not use a July 2024–2026 home sale as a direct 2026 valuation comparable. Delta County’s appeal guidance says sales after June 30, 2024 cannot be considered for the 2025–2026 valuation level.
Residential property now has two assessment calculations

School vs Non-School Assessment in 2026

Colorado changed residential assessment beginning with the 2025 property-tax year. Delta County’s own calculator now instructs owners to compute school taxes and non-school local-government taxes separately.

School assessment The 2026 statutory framework uses a separate residential school-district assessment percentage. Current state law points to 7.05% unless a lower balancing/correction percentage applies through the statewide school-finance mechanism.
Other local governments For 2026, current state law uses a 6.8% residential assessment percentage after applying the statutory residential actual-value reduction—the lesser of 10% of actual value, $70,000, or the amount necessary to preserve the statutory minimum assessed value.
Best calculation source: Delta County tells owners to open the current EagleWeb Account Summary, where the applicable assessment rates and mill levies needed for the parcel estimate are displayed. Use that live account rather than copying a rate from an older FAQ example.
Do not use Delta County’s old 2025 example as a 2026 calculator. Its educational page includes a 2025 example using a 6.25% non-school rate. The 2026 statutory framework is different.
One home can have two assessed-value calculations

How to Estimate Delta County Residential Property Tax

School portion Actual Value × applicable School Assessment Rate × School Mill Levy.
Non-school portion Statutorily Reduced Residential Actual Value × applicable Non-School Assessment Rate × combined non-school mill levies.
Remember the mill conversion: a mill is one dollar of tax for every $1,000 of assessed value. If a rate is displayed as 30.000 mills, the decimal tax-rate equivalent is 0.030.
There is no single Delta County property-tax rate. Delta, Cedaredge, Crawford, Hotchkiss, Paonia, Orchard City and rural parcels can fall into different school, fire, ambulance, water, conservation, cemetery or municipal combinations.
2026 ordinary protest periods closed

Delta County Property Value Appeal Deadlines

2026 real appeal opens County accepted real-property objections beginning January 1.
Real property deadline Mail, in-person and telephone 2026 real-property protests had to be received or postmarked by the county deadline.
Real determination Assessor aimed to mail real-property decisions by the final working day in June.
Personal property Delta County’s 2026 business-personal-property protest period.
Personal decision County states personal-property determinations are mailed by July 10.
New law effective Future standard real-property protest deadline moves from June 8 to June 1.
Use the sales period that the Assessor is legally allowed to use. For the 2025–26 cycle, focus on eligible sales through June 30, 2024.
Check physical property facts. Incorrect square footage, amenities, condition or classification can matter as much as a comparable sale.
If you appealed on time, read the Notice of Determination. It controls the next appeal window.
Move to County Board of Equalization when appropriate. Follow the deadline on the Assessor decision rather than relying on an internet summary.
Further appeal options exist. Colorado allows qualifying cases to proceed to the Board of Assessment Appeals, binding arbitration or district court after the county-board stage.
Delta County-specific convenience: the Assessor accepts telephone valuation appeals as a local courtesy, although Colorado law does not require every county to offer telephone filing.
Delta County Property Value Appeals Review the county’s 2026 deadlines, allowable sales period and post-appeal process.
Colorado senior, veteran & surviving-spouse programs

Delta County Property Tax Exemptions & Relief

For qualifying programs, Colorado exempts 50% of the first $200,000 of actual value of the qualifying primary residence. The state reimburses the property-tax revenue associated with the exempted portion when the program is funded.

Senior Citizen Exemption Standard qualification generally requires age 65 by January 1 plus 10 consecutive years of ownership and primary-residence occupancy, subject to statutory exceptions.
Veteran with a Disability Colorado’s program covers qualifying service-connected disability and, beginning with tax year 2025, qualifying individual-unemployability status under current state rules.
Gold Star surviving spouse Qualifying surviving spouses can claim relief on an owner-occupied primary residence.
Qualified Senior Primary Residence classification: this special moved-senior benefit exists for tax years 2025 and 2026. Colorado SB26-116 ends the temporary classification beginning with tax year 2027.
Time-sensitive August 12 update: SB26-046 takes effect today and aligns the regular application date for senior, qualified-senior and qualifying veteran/spouse programs at July 15, with qualifying late applications allowed through August 15. If you missed the ordinary deadline and may qualify, contact the Delta County Assessor immediately.
County webpage timing is partially outdated as of this verification. Delta County’s exemption page still lists July 1 for several veteran programs and March 15 for the qualified-senior classification. The newly effective state law changes those administrative deadlines, so confirm the current late-filing route directly with the Assessor.
Delta County Exemptions / Rebates Review eligibility forms, then confirm the new August 2026 deadline rules with the Assessor before filing.
Western Slope agricultural classification

Delta County Agricultural Land Assessment

Agricultural land is not simply taxed from its open-market purchase price. Colorado uses special statutory agricultural valuation rules, and Delta County maintains an agricultural land information packet and agricultural-residence guidance.

Agricultural use matters Classification depends on statutory qualifying use—not merely acreage or a rural mailing address.
Residence can be treated separately Land underlying an agricultural residence must meet the “integral to an agricultural operation” rule to retain agricultural land treatment.
Production data matters Delta County uses agricultural-production information as part of the valuation model for qualifying agricultural land.
Buyer warning: do not estimate the future tax on orchard, hay, ranch or irrigated acreage by multiplying the sale price by a generic assessment rate. First verify the parcel’s actual agricultural classification and use valuation in EagleWeb.
Agricultural Land Assessment Review Delta County’s current classification guidance and agricultural-residence requirements.
Delta County-specific mineral research workflow

How to Search Severed Mineral Interests

Delta County maintains separate records for qualifying severed mineral interests. This matters when surface ownership and mineral ownership do not match.

Start with the land’s legal description. Obtain the Section-Township-Range or other reliable legal-description information.
Use EagleWeb Tract Legal Search. Search by Section, Township and Range.
Look for accounts beginning with “N.” Delta County says severed-mineral account numbers begin with the letter N.
Open each potentially matching mineral account. Compare the legal description and ownership interest.
Move to Clerk & Recorder records. Trace the deeds/reservations that created or transferred the mineral interest.
Use professional title work for certainty. Delta County says a complete patent-to-present chain of title is required for formal placement of certain severed interests on the tax roll.
The Assessor does not warrant severed-mineral title. Delta County requires formal proof prepared by an attorney, title-insurance company or authorized title agent when a surface owner seeks formal placement of a severed mineral interest on the roll.
Delta County Severed Minerals Review the N-account search method, title-chain requirements and Certificate of Proof rules.
Business personal property is revalued every year

Delta County Business Personal Property

Unlike real estate, Colorado business personal property is valued annually. Machinery, equipment and other taxable business assets can require a yearly declaration when the statutory filing rules apply.

January 1 snapshot Ownership/use and taxable business assets are generally considered as of the annual assessment date.
April 15 declarations Colorado’s ordinary business-personal-property declaration deadline is April 15 when a filing is required.
2026 appeal period Delta County accepted 2026 personal-property valuation protests June 15 through June 30.
August 2026: both the ordinary declaration date and Delta County’s 2026 personal-property protest period have passed. A business with an omitted or incorrect account should contact the Assessor now rather than waiting for the next tax bill.
2027 change already enacted: Colorado SB26-116 sets the statewide business-personal-property exemption at $58,000 beginning January 1, 2027. Do not apply the $58,000 figure retroactively to tax year 2026.
Manufactured homes can cross assessor, treasurer and clerk workflows

Delta County Manufactured Home Records

Delta County maintains manufactured-home checklists and forms because ownership, title, permanent-location status, taxes and real-property treatment can require coordinated steps between county offices.

Search the Assessor first Identify whether the manufactured home appears as a titled/purged-title account and review current value.
Check property taxes A sale, move or title action can require proof that applicable taxes are handled.
Permanent-location paperwork Affixing or changing a manufactured home’s real-property status requires the correct statutory documents.
Manufactured Home Requirements Use the county checklist before buying, moving, purging title or changing permanent-location status.
Colorado collects property tax one year in arrears

Delta County Property Tax Due Dates in 2026

Paid during 2026 Taxes collected in calendar 2026 generally reflect tax year 2025.
First half First installment was due by the last day of February.
Full payment Annual payment-in-full deadline.
Second half Second installment deadline.
Current status All ordinary 2025-pay-2026 deadlines have passed.
2026 assessment Tax year 2026 values become payable next calendar year.
If your 2025 property tax is still unpaid: obtain the Treasurer’s current delinquent amount before paying. Do not rely on the original statement because interest or other statutory charges may have changed the payoff.
USPS rule: Delta County says only a United States Postal Service postmark is accepted as proof that a mailed tax payment met a statutory deadline.
Delinquent tax research

Tax Lien Sales & Treasurer’s Deeds

Annual tax-lien sale Delta County Treasurer administers the statutory sale of qualifying delinquent real-property tax liens.
Redemption Ownership does not normally transfer merely because a tax lien is sold; statutory redemption and deed procedures follow.
Treasurer’s deed Active deed information and related reports are published through the Treasurer and updated on the county schedule.
Current report timing: Delta County says active Treasurer’s-deed reports are updated weekly, with information updated by 1:00 p.m. each Monday.
Treasurer’s Deed Process Review current reports, redemption/deed procedures and contact information.

Delta County Assessor FAQs

1. How do I search Delta County Colorado property records?

Use the official Delta County EagleWeb property database. You can search by account number, parcel number, owner name, business name, situs address, subdivision/legal description or Section-Township-Range. EagleWeb also provides a separate Sales Search for sale dates, sale-price ranges and geographic criteria.

2. Who is the Delta County Assessor in 2026?

Jolene George is the current Delta County Assessor. The Assessor’s Office is at 375 W. 6th Street, Delta, Colorado 81416. The office phone is 970-874-2120 and normal office hours are Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

3. Is 2026 a reappraisal year in Delta County?

2026 is an intervening year. Colorado’s general reappraisal occurred for tax year 2025, and the 2025 value generally continues into 2026 unless new construction, demolition, classification changes, corrected property data or another statutory event requires an adjustment.

4. What sales can Delta County use for 2026 residential values?

For tax years 2025 and 2026, Delta County’s normal residential and vacant-land data-gathering period is July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2024. The county says sales after June 30, 2024 cannot be considered for the 2025–2026 valuation level and instead become relevant to the next reappraisal cycle.

5. What was the 2026 Delta County property-value appeal deadline?

Delta County accepted tax-year 2026 real-property valuation appeals through June 8, 2026. Business-personal-property appeals ran from June 15 through June 30. Those ordinary periods have passed. Colorado SB26-046, effective August 12, 2026, changes the standard future real-property protest deadline from June 8 to June 1.

6. When were Delta County property taxes due in 2026?

Taxes collected during calendar 2026 generally represent the 2025 property-tax year. Owners could pay in full by April 30 or in two installments due at the end of February and June 15. As of August 12, 2026, all ordinary 2025-pay-2026 deadlines have passed.

7. Is there one Delta County Colorado property tax rate?

No. Property-tax mill levies vary by tax area and can include the county, school district, municipality and special districts such as fire, ambulance, water or other authorities. The Assessor says mill levies are established by each taxing authority in the fall, so use the parcel’s live EagleWeb/tax-area information instead of a countywide average.

8. What senior and veteran property-tax relief is available in Delta County?

Colorado provides qualifying senior, veteran-with-disability and surviving-spouse exemptions that generally exempt 50% of the first $200,000 of actual value of a qualifying primary residence. A temporary Qualified Senior Primary Residence classification also applies for tax year 2026 to some seniors who moved and lost their prior exemption. New deadline rules effective August 12, 2026 allow qualifying late applications through August 15.

9. How do I search severed mineral interests in Delta County?

Use EagleWeb’s legal or Section-Township-Range search and look for severed-mineral accounts beginning with the letter N. Compare each mineral account with the property’s legal description, then use Clerk & Recorder records to trace the deeds or reservations that created the mineral interest. Delta County does not warrant severed-mineral title.

10. Where do I search Delta County deeds and liens?

Use Delta County’s official Records Search page and choose Recorded Documents. The Clerk & Recorder maintains deeds, liens, easements, plats and other recorded instruments. Teri A. Stephenson is the current Clerk & Recorder, and the office also offers a free Fraud Notify service for filings recorded under a registered name.

County Property Search, Homestead & Tax Help Toolkit

Use this free helper to find the right county office, prepare a property search, understand appraised value, review homestead exemption steps, and organize TRIM notice or tax bill questions before using official county websites.

Built for Florida county property guides
Helps users find official resources
No fake database or approval claim
Useful after every article

Find the Correct County Office

Property Appraiser, Tax Collector, Clerk, GIS, and VAB offices do different jobs. Pick your task below.

Quick rule: Property Appraiser = value, records, parcel details, exemptions. Tax Collector = bill and payment. Clerk/Recorder = deeds and recorded documents. VAB = formal value disputes.

Official Property Search Helper

Use this when a county article tells you to search by owner, address, parcel number, folio, PCN, STRAP, or alternate key.

Search tip: If address search fails, try only the house number and main street name. Avoid typing Street, Avenue, Road, Drive, unit numbers, or punctuation unless the official portal requires it.

Homestead Exemption Readiness Check

This helps homeowners prepare before filing through the official county Property Appraiser website.

Important: This is not an eligibility decision. The official county Property Appraiser decides approval, required documents, late filing options, and exemption status.

TRIM Notice & Value Review Helper

Use this to organize your questions before calling the Property Appraiser or preparing an appeal.

Your preparation checklist

Value term Simple meaning
Market value The appraiser’s estimate of the property’s value as of the assessment date.
Assessed value The value after limits or caps may be applied.
Exemptions Approved reductions such as homestead or other exemptions.
Taxable value The value used by taxing authorities after exemptions.

Property Tax Bill Direction Helper

The Property Appraiser values property, but the Tax Collector usually handles the actual bill and payment.

Florida timing reminder: Many Florida tax bills are mailed around November and become delinquent if unpaid after March 31. Always verify exact dates, discounts, and payment fees with the official county Tax Collector.
