New Orleans property tax calculator 2026

This New Orleans property tax calculator estimates annual property tax using assessed value and a combined local property tax rate you provide. In Louisiana, property tax bills are based on assessed value and millage rates set by taxing authorities. Results shown here are estimates and your actual tax bill may differ.

Estimates only. Loan terms and approval depend on lender underwriting.

Many U.S. counties use multiple local taxing authorities (county, city, school district, special districts). Enter your combined local millage rate as shown on your annual property tax notice.

Estimated property tax

Enter the assessed value to see the estimated annual property tax.

How it works

The estimate is produced by taking the taxable value entered and applying a consolidated local millage rate. Because multiple taxing authorities may apply within the city, the combined rate should reflect all relevant levies.

Examples

The total tax estimate reflects the sum of multiple taxing authorities, such as county, school, and special districts, each contributing to the combined rate applied to the taxable value.

Limitations and important notes

This tool does not look up parcel-specific millage rates or tax districts. In New Orleans, millage rates can differ by jurisdiction and district, so the correct combined rate depends on the property’s location and applicable taxing bodies. Exemptions such as the homestead exemption are eligibility-based and are not applied automatically here. The estimate may not match an actual tax bill, which can include parcel-specific variations and adjustments.

FAQs

Is this an exact New Orleans property tax bill amount?

No. This is an estimated property tax based on assessed value and a combined local property tax rate you provide. Actual tax bills may differ.

Should I enter market value or assessed value?

Enter assessed value. Louisiana property taxes are based on assessed value and millage rates, not full market value.

Why do I need to provide a combined local property tax rate?

Millage rates can vary by taxing authority and district. This calculator uses a combined local property tax rate you provide to produce an estimate.

Does this calculator apply exemptions like the homestead exemption?

No. Exemptions can depend on eligibility and property-specific details. This tool does not determine eligibility or apply exemptions automatically.
