 How do I look up my property assessment
in Butler County, PA?
The Assessment
Search Tutorial will thoroughly explain the procedure of searching
the property assessment on the Butler County web site.
How do I calculate my property taxes for
my home?
Step 1 - Find your real estate assessment on the
Butler County Assessment Page (a new window will open up in
your browser)
Step 2 - Find the local, school, and Butler County
tax rates here >
2011 Township & Borough Tax Rates and return to this page.
Step 3 - Draw a simple chart like the one below.
Step 4 - Working with decimals can be awfully confusing
and subject to error, so divide the result by 1,000 to arrive at
the annual tax bill for the Butler County properties.
