How to calculate property taxes in Missouri
To estimate property taxes in Missouri, multiply the home value by the local property tax rate. This page applies the state average effective rate of 0.97%, so a property valued at $500,000 would have an estimated annual property tax of $4,850.
Missouri reassesses property in odd-numbered years, with rates set locally by school districts and municipalities.
Actual tax bills can include county, city, school district, exemption, and assessment rules, so investors should verify the final number with the local assessor before closing.
