According to data from the U.S. Census Bureau provided by the Worldway Group Los Angeles Customer Service Center, the typical American household spends $2,127 annually on property taxes; however, in some parts of the U.S., homeowners may pay more than 10 times the average property tax amount. Since property tax is an unavoidable expense for homeowners, it is a factor that must be considered when purchasing a home.
However, real estate can also offer excellent tax deductions. If your property taxes are high, you may receive a larger tax refund after filing your annual tax return.
If you are looking to buy a home, you need to consider how property taxes will affect your overall housing costs. Keep in mind, however, that property tax rates are based on the value of the home. A state (or a region within a state) may have a high property tax rate, but if home prices are low, it may still be more affordable overall than other locations.
Furthermore, real estate can also offer excellent tax deductions. If your property taxes are high, you may receive a larger tax refund after filing your annual tax return.
In summary, whether you are a first-time homebuyer or considering a move, be sure to pay attention to the share of property taxes in your overall housing costs.
Below are the 10 U.S. states with the highest and lowest property tax rates:
