 How To Use This Site

Most people find the easiest search method to be by property address.  The best way to search is by using only the street number and the street name.  Do not use directional words like North and South or Suffixes such as St. or Blvd. 

If you were looking up the former estate of local baseball legend Cal Ripken Jr. you would do the following:

7) Divide by 12 to determine your monthly property tax contribution.  $18,551/12=~$1546, meaning that if you purchased the former estate of baseball legend Cal Ripken Jr. you should expect to pay $1546 in property taxes per month.  Don’t be scared by these numbers, this example is based off of a multimillion-dollar mansion.  A $350,000 home should have a much lower annual tax bill!

After a home is purchased the homeowner may apply for the Maryland Homestead Tax Credit.  The credit that the previous owner was receiving will not be applied to the new homeowner, which is why you must use the figures before the homestead credit is applied.  For more information about the Maryland Homestead Tax Credit, visit the website below.  Feel free to call or text me directly at 443-878-5096 with additional questions or any mortgage-related inquiries.
