Property Tax Calculation
In Maryland, state law provides that all real property is subject to property tax. Property tax is primarily a local government revenue.
Market Value
The Department of Assessments and Taxation appraises each property once every three years in order to get the market values. Market value, also known as full cash value or fair market value, has been defined by The Supreme Court as the sale price of real estate as agreed upon between a willing buyer and willing seller, with neither being under duress to buy or sell.
Assessed Value
Assessed value is the foundation upon which taxing authorities determine the amount of real estate taxes to be paid. Properties are assessed at 100% of their fair market values.
State law requires that any increase in the value is to be phased-in over the three years following an appraisal. This means that, ideally, an increase in assessment value from one reassessment to another is spread equally over the three-year period.
Property Tax
Property tax is calculated by multiplying the assessed value by the corresponding tax rates and is an estimate of what an owner not benefiting from any exemptions would pay.
Actual taxes might differ from the figures displayed here due to various abatement and financial assistance programs, staid aid and extra charges. For more information please visit Charles County's Assessor's Office, Treasurer or look up this property's current valuation and tax situation.
