How it works
In Smith County, property is appraised at market value by the county appraisal district. Taxable value is generally the appraised value minus any exemptions adopted by the relevant taxing units, such as homestead or disabled veteran exemptions. Each taxing unit, including the county, cities, school districts, and special districts, adopts its own tax rate. The estimated property tax is calculated by applying a combined local property tax rate to the taxable value.
Examples
For example, if a home has an appraised market value of 300,000 and qualifies for a homestead exemption that reduces taxable value, the tax is calculated on the reduced amount. If the combined local property tax rate across all applicable taxing units is 1.80%, the estimated annual property tax would be 300,000 minus exemptions, multiplied by 0.018.
Limitations and important notes
This calculator provides an estimated property tax only. In Smith County, tax rates vary by city, school district, and special district.
