Best Answer

In the US there are ad valorem (based on value) property taxes usually levied by the county, city, and/or town. The real estate is valued by an appraiser for the taxing authority and the standard tax rate for the improvement is simply plugged into the formula. The most common use of property tax is school funding.

How does my real estate tax increase?

Your real estate tax can increase whenever one of four things happens: (1) your real estate assessment increases (usually a result of increased market value of real estate); (2) the taxing agencies increase the real estate tax rates that are levied against real estate assessments; (3) you no longer qualify for an assessment or real estate tax abatement, deferral, or exemption; and (4) changes in real estate tax laws or sunset legislation no longer allows assessment or real estate tax caps to apply. A combination of one or more of these can also occur. For example, real estate assessments can decline as a result of weakness in the real estate market but tax rates increase so that the actual amount of real estate taxes you pay will be more than the previous year.
