Pittsburg County Overview
Pittsburg County Assessor - Property Valuation
Assessor Renae Furimsky, elected in 2022, runs the Pittsburg County Assessor's office. The office is at 115 E Carl Albert Parkway, Room 101, McAlester, OK 74501. You can reach the assessor by phone at 918-423-4726 or by email at pittsburgassessor@gmail.com. The assessor determines the fair cash value for all real and personal property in Pittsburg County, applying the 11% assessment rate required under Oklahoma Title 68. Farm and ranch parcels may qualify for agricultural valuation based on productive capacity rather than market value.
Assessment notices go out each spring. If you get a notice and believe your value is too high, you can request an informal review. If the issue is not resolved informally, you have 15 days from the assessment notice to file a protest with the County Board of Equalization. The board is independent and hears each case on its merits. Bring a recent appraisal, comparable sales for similar properties, or any documentation showing errors in how the property was described or measured. The county assessor's email at pittsburgassessor@gmail.com is a good starting point for questions before you file a formal protest.
County Clerk Hope Trammell's office is at 115 E Carl Albert Pkwy 1A, McAlester, OK 74501, reachable at 918-423-6865. The clerk maintains recorded land instruments including deeds, plats, and mortgages. These records complement the assessor's ownership data for full parcel history and title research.
Pittsburg County Tax Payments and Collection
The County Treasurer's office handles all property tax collection in Pittsburg County. The treasurer's phone is 918-423-6895. Oklahoma property taxes may be paid in full or in two installments. The first half or full amount is due by December 31. The second half is due by March 31 of the following year. Taxes that miss the December 31 deadline become delinquent on January 1. Interest then accrues at 1.5% per month under Oklahoma Statute Section 68-2817.
The annual tax resale in Pittsburg County is held on the second Monday of June. Properties with long-standing unpaid balances are listed and offered at public sale. If you receive notice that your property may appear on the resale list, contact the treasurer's office at 918-423-6895 immediately. Paying the full delinquent balance, including all interest and fees, removes the property from the list before the sale date.
Note: Pittsburg County property owners near Eufaula Lake should confirm the exact county designation of their parcel, as some lakefront properties may fall in Haskell, McIntosh, or Latimer counties.
