Question

What is property tax

Answer 1

Property tax is a real estate ad-valorem tax, considered a regressive tax, calculated by a local government, which is paid by the owner of the property. The tax is usually based on the value of the owned property, including land. The local governing body will use the assessed tax to fund water and sewer improvements, provide law enforcement and fire service and other items deemed necessary. Deeds of reconveyance do not interact with property taxes.
