The property listing usually mentions the previous year's property taxes. If you don’t find them there, ask the seller for a tax receipt or contact the local assessor's office. Tax rates can change from year to year, and can change based on the value of the home, so these figures may only approximate your future property tax liability. The local assessor can give you more detailed information on figuring your property tax costs.
