The residential real estate tax rate is 150.92 for tax year 2020 collected in 2021.

The effective tax rate, which is the rate you pay after reduction is 104.75.

Additionally you receive 12.5% in rollbacks.

There are two simple ways to estimate the real estate tax paid in 2021.

Example: Home with a $150,000 Market Value

➜ Market value $150,000 x 35% = Assessed value $52,500 / 1,000 x effective rate 104.75 = $5,499.37 x 87.5% rollbacks = $4,811.95 estimated tax per year.

➜ An easier method is to simply take the market value of your home $150,000 x 3.27% (the percentage to market rate) = $4,905.00 estimated tax per year.

Based on the $4,905.00 estimate - Where do your real estate tax dollars go?
