Property Tax Calculation
Property tax in North Carolina is a locally assessed tax, collected by the counties. The State Department of Revenue is responsible for listing, appraising and assessing all real estate estate within the counties. State legislation requires each county to reappraise real property, land, buildings and other improvements, at least once every eight years. However, it also allows them to revalue more frequently at their discretion.
The Mecklenburg County Appraiser establishes the appraised value, also known as market value, for all taxable property within the county. Market value has been defined by The Supreme Court as the sale price of real estate as agreed upon between a willing buyer and willing seller, with neither being under duress to buy or sell.
Market value | = | $7,848,200 |
Assessed Value
The Real Estate Assessment Office appraises and assesses all real estate in Mecklenburg County. North Carolina General Statutes require that real estate be assessed at 100% of its market value as of January 1 of each reappraisal year.
Assessed value | = | $7,848,200 |
Exemptions and Taxable Value
Mecklenburg County provides taxpayers with several types of exemptions and tax reliefs which may lower the property's tax bill. These are deducted from the assessed value to give the property's taxable value.
Unfortunately, no data regarding the exact exemption value was provided to us. Therefore, the taxable value is equal to the assessed value.
Property tax is calculated by multiplying the assessed value with the corresponding tax rates and represents the amount of what an owner not benefiting from any exemptions would pay. The tax rates are expressed as dollars per 100 of assessed value, therefore the tax amount is already divided by 100 in order to obtain the correct value.
Tax description | Assessed value | Tax rate | Tax amount | ||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Mecklenburg County | $7,848,200 | x | 0.4731 | = | $37,129.83 |
Cornelius Township | $7,848,200 | x | 0.1731 | = | $13,585.23 |
Property tax | $7,848,200 | x | 0.6462 | = | $50,715 |
Actual taxes might differ from the figures displayed here due to various abatement and financial assistance programs and non ad-valorem taxes.
