Redfin, Realtor, Zillow, Trulia..who to trust for accurate taxes?

[Bill Goodland]

Currently keeping my eye on a lot of submarkets in my area and running numbers as I plan to buy a property to househack next year upon finishing grad school. My question however is, what website to trust for the most accurate estimate on property taxes? I like different real estate listing services for different reasons, Redfin, Realtor, Zillow, Trulia etc. however they all seem to give vastly different property tax estimates that can take a property worth considering offering on to one that simply wouldn't work. I know it is possible to individually search county records for each properties' county website which I will absolutely do once I am ready to make an offer, however when I am simply browsing properties online without MLS access, I don't think that should be completely necessary just yet. With that being said, what does everyone recommend for the most accurate estimates on property taxes?

@Bill Goodland I wouldn't use any of the sites you listed, the most accurate numbers are going to be the Tax rate the Assessors office post. Take that rate, set your formula and drop in your purchase price for every property you analyze, quick and easy and no need to guess or rely on unreliable numbers.
