2% to 3.5% depending on jurisdiction. Usually around 2.7ish percent.

It’s getting more expensive. ~150k 7 years ago can be $275k -$325k now.

Yea, my home in about 8 years has gone up over 110K in value.

Depends on where you live. For example, I wouldn’t call Austin cheap

Valuation increases are usually capped at 10% plus there are some exemptions you can get to reduce valuation by a bit.

Makes up for the no state income tax.

I’m currently better off with property tax because I was conservative with what I bought relative to salary.
Tokolosh

This is one reason why I think property taxes could be preferable to income tax

What is the relation of assessed value to actual value?
Archaea

I’m at 90% but we bought 2 1/2 years ago.

Wow. Nevada's is about 40% IIRC.
Archaea

Longtime owners may be closer to that since appreciation has outstripped the cap on tax increases.
Tokolosh

Ouch.

It’s based on value of house and then education taxes primarily

A lot. About 2.5-3% of your appraised value. Basically, about the same as your P&I.

Run anywhere from about $450 to $1,000 per MONTH for pretty typical homes.
StarMan

If you're paying $1,000/month, you're living in a nice home.

I paid just under $450/mo this last year in 4br/3ba home.
