Tangible Personal Property Tax is an ad valorem tax assessed on:

• Furniture, fixtures, and equipment used in businesses or rental properties
• Structural additions to mobile homes

 

How It Works:

• The Property Appraiser’s Office determines the assessed value of the property.
• Once certified by the Property Appraiser and taxing authorities, the tax roll is sent to the Tax Collector for billing and collection.
• Tax bills are mailed on or before November 1 each year to the owner's last known address.

It is the taxpayer’s responsibility to ensure the tax bill is paid, even if you did not receive a notice.
