What You Need to Know About Property Tax
The value of a property in the real estate tax records is called the property tax value. Every four years, the described plot is calculated based on the property value.

If you have a dwelling, you calculate the property tax value that corresponds to your share of land by multiplying your land share rate by the unit property tax value per square meter of the land on your street. By multiplying the gross area of the property and the construction classes described by the Ministry of Public Works, you add it by multiplying the “build reconstruction value”. You deduct from this figure the unit wear value belonging to the age of the structure and published by the ministry again. So you find the base raiser for the property value of the property. You calculate your tax by multiplying it by the real estate tax rate.

How to Pay Real Estate Tax

Property tax is paid annually in two equal installments. The first installment is paid on the last day of May, and the second installment is paid on the last day of November. There is a false perception in society that the property tax should be paid in the last week of May and the last week of November. This situation causes clumps in municipalities. With the exception of workload and system-driven local applications, property tax can be paid every day (online systems can also be paid on holidays) throughout the year. There is no obligation to pay in the form of installments. Both installments can be paid collectively at one time. Nowadays, there is also the possibility of conveniently paying from the online systems of municipalities without the need to go to the municipality.
