Property Tax Calculation
The Oregon State does not have a statewide property tax. Property taxes are primarily managed and collected through the individual counties. The Department of Revenue provides oversight and assistance to the counties by establishing general guidelines and administrative tools. The property types taxed in the State of Oregon are real estate property and personal property.
Market Value
The Polk County Assessor establishes the market value for all taxable real property within the county. 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 calculated using the method introduced by Measure 50 (1996). For tax years after 1997-1998 the assessed value is defined as the the previous year assessed value increased by 3%.
Property Tax
Property tax is calculated by multiplying the assesssed value with the corresponding millage rates and is an estimate of what an owner not benefiting from any exemptions would pay. The rates are expressed as millages (i.e the actual rates multiplied by 1000).
Actual taxes might differ from the figures displayed here due to various abatement and financial assistance programs. For more information please visit Polk County's Assessment Department or look up this property's current valuation and tax situation.
