Franklin County Property Taxes
Hey everyone,
I had a few questions about how property taxes work in Franklin County:
- I know there's a triennial reassessment, but can the taxable values change in between the 3-year periods, like maybe when permits are pulled?
- The taxable value is 35% of the assessed market value. But how much does the assessed market value differ from the actual market value? Comparing a few recent sales on the MLS to the 2020 assessed values, it seems like there's a 20-40% discount in the assessed value
- If there's a sale, does the sale price factor into the assessed value in any way? This is common in some municipalities, but doesn't seem to be the case in Franklin County
- What does the "non-business credit" apply to: is it whether the property is held in an LLC/corp?
- Last one -- for property tax abatements, I assume the assessed market value is frozen at the most recent assessed value?
Thanks!
- Harman
