Definition of Property tax

Property tax is a type of tax that is based on the value of a property. It is an ad valorem tax, which means that it is calculated as a percentage of the property's value. This tax is payable by the owner of the property, regardless of whether the property is generating income or not.

  • A homeowner pays property tax on their house, which is based on the assessed value of the property.
  • A business owner pays property tax on their commercial property, which is based on the assessed value of the property.

These examples illustrate how property tax is calculated based on the value of the property. The tax is payable by the owner of the property, regardless of whether the property is generating income or not. Municipal governments in the U.S. often use property taxes to generate necessary revenue.
