Sample Property Tax Report for a Fresno County, CA property


Property Tax

The California Constitution mandates that all property is subject to taxation unless otherwise exempted by state or federal law. Proposition 13, enacted in 1978, forms the basis for the current property tax laws.


Market Value

Full cash value, also known as market value or fair market value, is the amount for which a property would sell in a competitive and open market, presuming that both buyer and seller are knowledgeable about the sale, allow sufficient time for it, and are not affected by undue pressures (e.g. foreclosures and bankruptcy).

Land value $73,011
Improvement(s) value + $129,454
Total market value = $202,465

Assessed Values

Property taxes are based on the assessed value of the property. Assessed values are calculated based on market values using a base year value and a predetermined ratio. This ratio is currently set to 100% for the Fresno County. The assessed value for most property taxed is the prior year's assessed value adjusted for inflation up to 2 percent. However, if there has been a change in ownership or completed new construction, the new assessed value will be the market value of the property as of the date that if changed ownership or was newly constructed.

Total assessed value = $202,465

Taxable values and exemptions

Taxable value represents the assessed value less any tax deductions that apply. Fresno County provides a variety of full and partial exemptions that may lower the property's tax bill.

We have no information about whether any exemptions currently apply to this property. Therefore, the taxable value will be equal to the assessed value.

Total assessed value $202,465
Taxable value = $202,465

Property Tax

Property tax is calculated by multiplying the property's taxable value by all the tax rates applicable to it.
Ccurrent tax represents the amount the present owner pays including exemptions.
Base tax represents what an owner NOT benefiting from any exemptions would pay.
Nevertheless, actual taxes might differ from the figures displayed here due to various abatement and financial assistance programs.

Tax description Taxable Value Tax Rate Tax Amount
Current tax (estimated) $202,465 x 1.1799% = $2,388.94

Base tax (estimated) = $2,388.94
