However, property tax \u2013 a recurring payment that can significantly impact a household\u2019s shelter budget \u2013 is often overlooked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike other transactional closing costs property tax is paid continuously through one\u2019s homeownership on an annual basis. It can be a significant carrying cost. However, the amount homeowners pay can vary dramatically depending on the home value and municipality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, according to new calculations from Zoocasa, an Albertan homeowner living in Grande Prairie (which has the highest property tax rate in the province at 1.48000%) would pay $4,767 <strong>more<\/strong> in tax on a home assessed at $500,000, compared to a resident in Fort McMurray, where the property tax rate is the lowest at 0.47454%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Related Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/how-property-tax-differs-across-canada-infographic\/\">How Property Taxes Differ Across Canada<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Does Property Tax Work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Property taxes are based on two distinctive parts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The assessed value of your home, as determined by the provincial tax authority. This assessment takes into account the age and condition of your home, any applicable renovations or upgrades, lot size and features, as well as comparable values in your neighbourhood.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The residential rate set by the local tax authority or municipal council. The rate is set each year via a bylaw, and is based on the municipality&#8217;s forecasted expenditures and budget. The proceeds of property tax are an important funding method for city and town services. This includes schools, public transit, police and emergency services, street maintenance, and the upkeep of green spaces. A portion is also given to the provincial government as part of Alberta\u2019s Education Property Tax.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The amount you\u2019ll pay in property tax can be calculated by multiplying your most recent home value assessment by the residential rate set by your local municipality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other Factors That Impact Property Taxes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Because the residential tax rate is determined by individual cities based on their specific budgets, they have considerable leeway when setting it. Some municipalities may opt to keep residential tax rates lower as part of a campaign promise to residents, and to increase the attractiveness of the local property market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The size of a city\u2019s population and home values can also impact the amount of tax. Municipalities with a larger tax base and a strong real estate market typically have more flexibility to keep the tax rate lower. For example, in response to softer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/calgary-ab-real-estate\">Calgary real estate<\/a>\u00a0and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/edmonton-ab-real-estate\">Edmonton real estate<\/a>\u00a0prices, both cities hiked their property tax rates in 2017, to help recoup losses from lower home values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In comparison, Toronto and Vancouver are markets that have seen sustained, steep price appreciation. They have decreased their rates for nine and 14 years in a row, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another factor is the city\u2019s commercial-to-residential tax ratio. In most municipalities, businesses pay at least\u00a0double the amount of tax than homeowners, with the Canadian average at 2.85. Generally, a higher commercial property tax rate translates to a lower residential rate. Vice-versa; a local council may opt to hike the latter if they feel their community needs to offer more competitive advantages to businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Home Buyers Should Consider the Cost of Property Taxes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important for home buyers to be aware of the local tax rate in their desired neighbourhood. Additionally, how it may rise or fall along with their property\u2019s appreciation. Having to abruptly pay more tax due to rising home prices can be a shock to any household budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out the infographic below to see which Albertan real estate markets have the lowest \u2013 and highest \u2013 property tax rates, and what homeowners could expect to pay based on sample assessments of $250,000, $500,000, and $1,000,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Property tax rates were sourced from each municipality\u2019s website. August 2018 average home prices were sourced from each region\u2019s real estate board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/zoocasa-alberta-property-tax-rates.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"2355\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/zoocasa-alberta-property-tax-rates.jpg\" alt=\"zoocasa-alberta-property-tax-rates\" class=\"wp-image-15815\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/zoocasa-alberta-property-tax-rates.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/zoocasa-alberta-property-tax-rates-768x3014.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/zoocasa-alberta-property-tax-rates-261x1024.jpg 261w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are buyers\u2019 top considerations when making an offer on a property?
