Short Paper: Property Assessment and Taxes

This course is Real Estate, not Marketing

Week 7 - Short Paper

Go back to your county or municipal offices/courthouse or research any available online equivalent offices. Research, the assessor's and the auditor's offices. Find out how properties are assessed for tax purposes and how property taxes are computed on them. Then, using a $100,000 valued house, go through the calculations.
