Outside of a revaluation year, below are the reasons for a change in value. Taken from
subsection (a) of NC G.S. 105-287:
(1) Correct a clerical or mathematical error.
(2) Correct an appraisal error resulting from a misapplication of the schedules, standards, and
rules used in the county’s most recent general reappraisal or horizontal adjustment.

conservation or preservation agreement subject to Article 4 of Chapter 121 of the General

(2c) Recognize an increase or decrease in the value of the property resulting from a change in
the legally permitted use of the property.
(3) Recognize an increase or decrease in the value of the property resulting from a factor other than one listed in subsection (b).

And along with that, below are the reasons listed in subsection (b) of NC G.S. 105-287 of why Assessed Values May Not Change, again outside of a revaluation year:

(1) Normal, physical depreciation of improvements;
(2) Inflation, deflation, or other economic changes affecting the county in general; or
(3) Betterments to the property made by:
a. Repainting buildings or other structures;
b. Terracing or other methods of soil conservation;
c. Landscape gardening;
d. Protecting forests against fire; or
e. Impounding water on marshland for non commercial purposes to preserve or enhance the natural habitat of wildlife.

ASSESSED VALUE AND THE TAX RATE
The assessor’s office doesn’t determine the total amount of taxes collected. The assessor’s primary responsibility is to find the market value of your property, so that you may pay only your fair share of the taxes.
The amount of tax you pay is determined by a TAX RATE applied to your property’s ASSESSED VALUE. The tax rate is determined by all the taxing agencies-city and/or county, fire districts, and others -–and depends on what is needed to provide all the services you enjoy.

The statement should be for the month and year in which you register the vehicle and must include your Estimated Time of Separation (ETS) date and a home of record other than North Carolina. Military spouses may also qualify for exemption if their home of record is the same as the service member’s. In addition to providing a copy of the LES as described above, spouses must provide a copy of their military I.D. card and a copy of their out of state driver’s license, voter registration card or most current state tax return.
