County Tax Bill Estimator

About This Tool:
The Department of Local Government Finance (DLGF), in partnership with the Indiana Business Research Center (IBRC) at Indiana University, created the below tax bill projection utility for Indiana taxpayers. This tool will allow the taxpayer to enter their home’s assessed value, taxing district, and possible deductions to see the impact of the new certified tax rates on their tax bill.

The estimates provided by this tool are projections only and should not be taken as a statement of true tax liability.

This tool will also show the impact of the recently-passed legislation capping property taxes. For homesteads, this cap rate is 1.5% of gross assessed value for taxes payable in 2009, and 1% of gross assessed value for taxes payable starting in 2010. For other residential property, the cap rate is 2.5% of gross assessed value for taxes payable in 2009, and 2% for taxes payable starting in 2010.

To Calculate an Estimate of Your Bill:
Select a tax district from the dropdown box at the top of the form. The district numbers match the district number you receive on your bill. Enter an assessed value for the property. Next select any deductions that may apply to the parcel by either clicking on the checkboxes, or entering an amount in the 'Other Deductions' text box. Finally, click on the 'Calculate This Bill' button to get an estimated bill.
