Frequently asked questions
How do I find my local property tax rate?
Check your current property tax bill, contact your county assessor's office, or search online for your municipality's tax rate information.
Is the calculated amount my final tax bill?
This provides an estimate. Your actual tax may vary based on exemptions, assessments, local millage rates, and other factors.
Should I use market value or assessed value?
Use your property's assessed value if known, as this is what tax calculations are based on, not market value.
