Property Tax Calculation
Defined by Wisconsin state law, general property includes all taxable real and personal property, except property taxed under special provisions. Article VIII of the Wisconsin Constitution requires the uniform taxation of property.
Market Value
The fair market value of property in the Milwaukee County is an estimate of its market value as of January 1st in the assessment year. It is the property's assessed value divided by an assessment ratio. The ratio for this property is currently set to 0.9994. However, estimated fair market value is a less reliable estimate than the one prepared by the assessor: fair market value is not used in the calculation of property tax.
Assessed Value
Assesed value is placed on a property by the municipal assessor for purposes of taxation. The assessed value is used to determine the property tax amount and represents the property's taxable value unless exemptions are applied.
Exemptions and Taxable Value
Taxable value represents the assessed value less any tax exemptions that apply. City of Milwaukee provides several exemptions 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
Property tax is calculated by multiplying the assessed value with the corresponding millage rates and is an estimate of what an owner not benefiting from tax 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 the City of Milwaukee Assessor, Treasurer, or look up this property's current valuation AND tax situation.
