PROPERTY TAXES 

Baldwin County Taxes for your personal residence can be figured using a 3 part calculation. 

1) First you multiply the Fair Market Value by 10% to arrive at your Assessed Value. Using a $250,000 home, the calculation would be $250,000 x 10%= $25,000. 

2) Next you would multiply the Assessed Value by the appropriate Millage rate. Using the Baldwin County Millage of 27.5 mills the calculation would be $25,000 x .0275= $687.50 which would give your Gross Propery Tax. 

3) And lastly you would deduct your Homestead Deduction $687.50 - $44.00= $643.50 to leave you with your annual Net Property Tax. 

- For land, lots or investment properties the assessed value would be figured using 20% instead of 10% and there would be no Homestead Deduction.
