Maryland Property Tax

The Maryland Department of Assessments and Taxation administers and enforces the property assessment and property tax laws of Maryland. Maryland's 23 counties, Baltimore City and 155 incorporated cities issue property tax bills during July and August each year. The tax levies are based on property assessments determined by the Maryland Department of Assessments and Taxation (SDAT).

Assessments are certified by the Department to local governments where they are converted into property tax bills by applying the appropriate property tax rates. An assessment is based on an appraisal of the fair market value of the property. An appraisal is an estimate of value. There are three accepted approaches to market value: the sales approach; the cost approach; the income approach. Source
