Property Tax Calculation
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.
Assessed value is calculated based on market value using a base year value. A property's original base value is its 1975-1976 market value and can be adjusted each year by no more than 2% to account for inflation. However, if there has been a change in ownership or completed a new construction, the property must be reassessed.
The base year for this property's market value is: 2023.
| Land value | $624,000 | ||||||
| Building value | + | $156,000 | |||||
| Assessed value | = | $780,000 | |||||
Exemptions and Taxable Value
Taxable value represents the assessed value less any tax exemptions that apply. Several exemptions are available in the City and County of San Francisco 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.
Property tax is calculated by multiplying the property's assessed value by the total tax rate applicable to it and is an estimate of what an owner not benefiting from any exemptions would pay. The tax rate is expressed as dollars per 100 of assessed value, therefore the tax amount is already divided by 100 in order to obtain the correct value.
| Tax description | Assessed value | Tax rate | Tax amount | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Property tax | $780,000 | x | 1.1714 | = | $9,137 |
Actual taxes might differ from the figures displayed here due to various abatement and financial assistance programs or to non ad-valorem taxes levied as special assessments and direct charges. For more information please visit California State Board of Equalization or this publication. Also, you can visit the San Francisco County's Assessor-Recorder, Treasurer and Tax Collector, or look up this property's current valuation.
