Property Tax Calculation
Property taxes in Pennsylvania are levied and collected locally and fund local entities such as counties, municipalities and school districts.
Market Value
A property's market value has been defined by the Pennsylvania State Supreme Court as the price in a competitive market a purchaser, willing but not obligated to buy, would pay an owner, willing but not obligated to sell, taking into consideration all the legal uses to which the property can be adapted and might reasonably be applied.
Assessed Value
Assessment is the basis upon which taxing authorities tax a property. In Dauphin County a property's assessed value is calculated by multiplying the market value with the predetermined ratio which, for this county, is 100%. However, if the property's assessment value is appealed, the county's common level ratio may be applied instead: this reflects a comparison of the previous year's actual sale prices to the assessed value.
Exemptions and Taxable Value
Several exemptions are available in Dauphin County, like Homestead and Farmstead Exclusion, which may lower the property's tax bill. These are deducted from the property's assessed value to give the property's taxable value.
Unfortunately we have no information about whether any exemptions currently apply to this property. Therefore the assessed value is equal to the taxable value.
Property Tax
Property tax is calculated by multiplying the property's assessed value by the total millage rates applicable to it 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 or to non ad-valorem taxes. For more information please visit Dauphin County's Tax Assessment, Treasurer or this property's current valuation and tax situation.
