Paperless Property Tax Statements Now Available
Clackamas County offers an option for property tax statements to be delivered electronically through a service called eNoticesOnline.
Property owners who want to go paperless and/or prefer to receive documents online, rather than printed and mailed, can now sign up for electronic statement service using a unique account registration code printed on their property tax statements.
Once an account is registered, electronic statement notices will arrive via a registrant’s email and paper statements will no longer be delivered.

Values and Updates
Real Market Value (RMV) in Clackamas County remained relatively stable again with some market areas having slight decreases/increases for the Jan. 1, 2025 assessment date. Both residential marketing time and inventory saw slight increases from the prior year.
Property taxes in Oregon are based on Assessed Value (AV). AV is determined by the lower amount of RMV or Maximum Assessed Value (MAV). Under Measure 50, MAV routinely grows 3% each year resulting in a typical tax increase of 3%. This will be the outcome for many property owners again this year; however, it won’t be the case for everyone.
Taxes that increase greater than 3% include changes to property such as remodeling, new construction, new voter approved money measures, or a combination of changes.
Rising market values can cause less tax savings under Measure 5, Oregon’s other property tax limitation.

Yellow or green statement?
A yellow tax statement means your mortgage lender requested your payment information and may be paying your property tax. If you have any questions, call your lender. Keep your statement for your records and do not pay if your lender pays your taxes.
