Wayne County property and land owners have begun receiving their 2025 Real Estate Revaluations.

This process, mandated by North Carolina law, is essential for distributing the tax burden fairly among property owners.

While the revaluation adjusts assessed property values, it does not directly determine your property tax bill. That is set separately by elected officials during the annual budget process.

Why is Revaluation Necessary?

Revaluations are conducted to ensure fairness in property taxation. Market conditions vary across different areas and property types, so property values may increase or decrease at different rates.

The revaluation ensures that each property is taxed proportionately to its current market value.

What Does Revaluation Mean for My Tax Bill?

Although revaluation affects the assessed value of your property, your actual tax bill will depend on two factors: the new assessed value and the tax rate, which will be set separately by local officials.

Therefore, it’s important to note that while the revaluation updates property values, it doesn’t automatically translate to a higher tax bill.

How Are Property Values Determined?

Wayne County’s appraisers use three standard appraisal techniques to assess property values:

These techniques ensure that the assessed values are in line with local market conditions.

What if I Disagree with My Property’s Assessment?

If you believe your property’s assessed value is incorrect, you have the right to appeal. There are two ways to appeal: an informal appeal and a formal appeal.

The informal appeal allows you to submit documentation to the Tax Office for review, while the formal appeal involves further steps with the Wayne County Board of Equalization and Review.

The 2025 revaluation in Wayne County is part of a regular process required by law to ensure fairness in property taxation.

By updating property values to reflect current market conditions, the county ensures that the tax burden is distributed equitably among property owners.

If you receive a revaluation notice and feel that the new assessed value is incorrect, you have options to appeal and potentially adjust your assessment.

Stay informed and review your notice carefully to ensure your property value is assessed accurately.

Goldsboro, NC – A major step forward has been taken in the creation of a new neighborhood in Goldsboro as the Golden LEAF Foundation Board of Directors announced a $500,000 grant to Habitat for Humanity of Goldsboro-Wayne to support infrastructure development for the future McNair Heights Neighborhood.

The announcement, made on Thursday, April 3, 2025, comes just weeks after the Goldsboro City Council voted in March to allocate $1.12 million to the same project. With the addition of nearly $400,000 from Habitat’s own reserves, the organization is now fully funded to begin the initial infrastructure phase of the development.

Named in honor of the late Rev. Dr. H.E. McNair, a beloved former pastor of New Stoney Hill Church, the 24.5-acre community will be located along Dr. H.E. McNair Street, just off Harris Street in Goldsboro.

“The Golden LEAF Board of Directors recognizes the need for increased workforce housing in rural areas,” said Scott T. Hamilton, Golden LEAF President and CEO. “Available housing ensures that communities can support the growing workforce for new and expanding business and industry. Golden LEAF funding will support the infrastructure for Phase I of the McNair Heights Neighborhood, which will facilitate the development of new homes in Wayne County.”

Phase 1 of the multi-phase project will include 31 new single-family homes, with at least 25 homes reserved for Habitat families. Site preparation is already underway, with infrastructure work scheduled to begin in early summer. Home construction is expected to begin in October 2025 and continue through late 2028.

This project marks a new chapter for Habitat Goldsboro-Wayne, which celebrated its 100th home build in May 2024.

“We are so excited for this neighborhood and our future homeowners,” said Executive Director Matthew Whittle. “Developing an entire neighborhood like this is a new venture for us, and we are incredibly thankful for the support from our community—especially Golden LEAF and the City of Goldsboro. This is a significant investment in our city and in people, and we can’t wait to share more as we build homes, community, and hope.”

The McNair Heights Neighborhood represents not just housing, but a long-term investment in strengthening Wayne County’s workforce, community development, and quality of life.

Excitement is soaring as “Jams Over Wayne” takes flight on May 2, marking the perfect collaboration between Wings Over Wayne Show and Downtown Goldsboro Development.

This special event serves as both an electrifying opener to the Seymour Johnson Air Force Base Wings Over Wayne Air Show and the official launch of the Downtown Goldsboro summer concert series – Center Street Jam.

“Jams Over Wayne” will be a free event from 6 p.m. to 9 at The HUB in downtown Goldsboro, and is the only Friday night concert of the season, making it a can’t-miss experience.

Following this high-energy kickoff, Center Street Jam will return to its traditional Thursday night schedule, beginning May 15, and continuing every other Thursday through Aug. 7.

Adding to the excitement this year is a brand-new act to Goldsboro’s music scene – The Amazing Lounge Lizards.

This dynamic party band delivers a diverse mix of hits from the ‘70s through the 2000s, guaranteed to get the crowd dancing.

Their debut performance is sure to have everyone asking: Who are The Amazing Lounge Lizards?
