Property Tax Calculation
In Washington State, all real and personal property is subject to taxation unless specifically exempted by law. Property taxes are levied and collected by local governments and are used to fund essential public services and local taxing districts, including counties, cities, fire districts, libraries, and public schools. Property tax is the oldest tax levied in Washington State and remains one of the primary sources of revenue for local government services.
Market Value
In Thurston County, market value or fair market value is the estimated price a property would sell for in an open-market transaction between a willing buyer and a willing seller, with neither party under pressure to buy or sell and both having reasonable knowledge of the property and market conditions.
Assessed Value
The assessed value of a property is used as the basis for calculating property taxes. In Washington State, county assessors are required by law to value taxable property at 100% of its true and fair value, which is generally considered to be its market value. Property values are determined using accepted appraisal methods and analysis of local market conditions, including recent sales of comparable properties.
Exemptions and Taxable Value
Property tax deferrals and exemptions are available in Thurston County under Washington State law and may reduce a property's tax bill. If applicable, the exemption may reduce the property's taxable value or exempt certain property tax levies, depending on the program.
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
The property tax is calculated by multiplying the assessed value by the applicable levy rates and represents an estimate of the amount a property owner would pay without any exemptions.
Actual taxes might differ from the figures displayed here due to various abatement and financial assistance programs. For more information please visit Thurston County's Assessor, Treasurer or look up this property's current valuation and tax situation.
