Massachusetts property taxes in 10 seconds⬇️
Your town or city sets a rate for every $1,000 of your home’s assessed value. Multiply that rate by your assessed value and that’s your annual tax bill.
Example: An $850k home in Andover right now?
About $10,464 a year (roughly $872/month).
Why do the property tax bills keep going up?
Most towns raise the total amount they collect by about 2.5% each year under Prop 2½ — plus any new growth. So even if your rate stays similar, higher assessments or the annual increase still push the bill higher. Rates and bills vary a lot by town, so always check your specific city or town.
