Property tax in Georgia is a local tax based on the assessed value of your home and land. The average effective rate — the tax actually paid as a share of market value — is about 0.77% statewide, though the real figure depends on your county, school district and any special levies. On the median Georgia home of roughly $330,000, that works out to about $2,541 a year. Most homeowners pay it monthly through an escrow account bundled into their mortgage payment.
Multiply your home's value by the effective rate. For example, a $330,000 home at 0.77% owes 330,000 × 0.77% = $2,541 per year. Enter your own home value above to get a personalised estimate, then confirm the exact local millage with your county assessor's office for budgeting.
