If you have been hit with a big bill from your GA tax assessors’ office, you may be wondering just how they got those numbers in the first place. The fact is that tax assessors use the market value of a home – meaning what a home would sell for on the market – to determine what kind of tax you’ll need to pay. If you live in a great area and your home is modern and of good quality, you’ll have an easier time selling it. That means it’s worth more on the market, which in turn means the GA tax assessors can charge you more in property taxes.
