Property Tax

Who Handles Property Tax in Motley County

Motley County has its own appraisal district and a separate tax assessor-collector office — knowing which one to call saves time.

Motley County Money & Taxes

Two offices handle property tax here. The Motley County Appraisal District sets the value of your property. It is physically located in Floydada (Floyd County), which is unusual but legal — small counties sometimes share staff. Call them at 806-983-5256 or reach them at P.O. Box 249, Floydada, TX 79235.

The Tax Assessor-Collector in Matador is a separate office. That office collects the actual tax bill. Their address is 701 Dundee St., Matador, and their phone is 806-347-2252. If you think your value is wrong, contact the appraisal district. If you have a payment question, contact the tax office.
