What Limestone County's 2026 certified roll shows
Added up, these homes are appraised $49 million above the typical value of the similar homes they were compared with.
We could not find 5 similar homes for the other 5,072 homes on the roll (an unusual size or age, or a rural home), so they are not part of the percentage.
