With market / assessed value of $350,000, the model gives estimated annual property tax: $6,300.
The formula is taxable bases × applicable millage ÷ 1,000 − approved bill credits + fixed charges. Open the breakdown to trace expenses and assumptions.

A housing-value example for Oregon
Census QuickFacts reports a median owner-occupied home value of $477,600 for 2020–2024. This is a dated housing estimate, not a current sale-price median or a parcel assessment. The source was checked on 2026-09-30.
Suppose the assessor certifies $300,000 of assessed value and an effective rate on that base of 15 mills. The annual arithmetic gives $4,500. The $477,600 real-market-value scenario does not reconstruct maximum assessed value under Measure 50. This example also does not reproduce Measure 5 category limits or compression. The assessor must supply values and levy treatment that already resolve those differences. A senior/disabled deferral can postpone collection; it should not be entered as a blanket reduction of assessed value.
The live model gives $4,500 under these assumptions. Local rates and any illustrative certified bases in this scenario are hypothetical. Replace them with the parcel’s matching tax-year records before budgeting a bill.
Load this example in the calculatorStart with the assessor’s taxable value
Market value, assessed value and taxable value are not interchangeable. A certified taxable-value override is the safest input when you have the current parcel record. Without it, the calculator applies the selected state’s simplified assessment model to the entered value. School and other millage are applied separately where exemptions differ. A mill is one dollar per thousand dollars of taxable value.
A county is not one tax district
School, city, special-district and bond levies can differ within the same county. The county selector identifies the jurisdiction; it does not imply a single county-wide bill rate. The sample millages are clearly labeled assumptions. Replace them with the effective levies for the parcel and tax year, then add non-ad-valorem charges separately.
A purchase can reset the assessment
Existing-owner assessment caps may not transfer to a buyer. Michigan taxable value can uncap after a transfer; California can re-establish a base value; Florida’s Save Our Homes benefit has transfer and portability conditions. Select a reassessment reset when modeling a new purchase unless the assessor confirms another treatment. A seller’s current bill can substantially understate the buyer’s tax expense.
Tax relief needs eligibility
Homestead status, age, disability and veteran exemptions depend on state and local rules. Only the basic modeled homestead treatment is automatic. Other exemptions are a manually confirmed taxable-value adjustment. Credits, levy-specific deductions, tax freezes and appeal relief can require a different calculation. The state notes and official source links explain what to check before using the result in a rental or net sheet.
