A property tax is an annual levy imposed upon property or land by the legal authority on which the property is located. The property includes all tangible real estate property, house, office building, and the property rented out to others. It is usually a percentage of the assessed value of the property. In the United States, property tax is collected by counties or municipalities. Property tax liability is calculated by multiplying the nominal property tax rate by the assessment ratio (the percentage of the value of the property that is taxed) by the value of the property.
