How Georgia property tax is calculated
Georgia counties assess your home's value and apply a local millage rate; the effective rate of 0.79% rolls that into a single share of market value. To estimate your tax, multiply your home value by 0.79% (or your county's exact rate), then subtract any homestead or senior exemption. The calculator above does this and also shows the monthly escrow figure.
