As a Monterey County home owner I get my tax bills..Tax rate Monterey County is 1% of Assessed Value plus bond and assesments. on new homes you will pay much mmore because of all imptovements for roads, sewers. for more information here is a linnk to the Tax Assessors Website ( STEPHEN L. VAGNINI) He is a nice guy. http://000sweb.co.monterey.ca.us/assessor/ copy and paste to your brouser.

Good Luck Craig,

Under proposition the taxes are based on 1% of the purchase plus any bonds or assessments the city and or county as passed. The quickest calculation is appx. 1.25 % of the purchase price.

Hello Craig, I can say generally that if you mean property tax, it's calculated statewide at approximately 1.25% of the current selling price, but also you need to know what your local taxes may be. One way of finding out is to ask your local REALTOR to help you order a California Tax Report, that way you can figure your basic tax rate of 1% (to start) and see what the additional bonded indebtedness or other local taxes are that impact your property from year to year. You can also check the website for your local county tax assessor.
