How would I calculate how much taxes a house will have when I buy it? Is Zillow accurate? Or a different website? (Zillow shows the highest). Does it go by the amount you buy the house for?
Just trying to figure out what we could afford so trying to figure out around what the taxes would be....

You can ask the owner or real estate agent.

You can look up the history of the house and you’ll see estimated taxes.

On Zillow it will give the history of taxes paid by the owner. Their estimated taxes are much higher usually.

Thanks. So should I assume it will be pretty similar to the taxes the owner paid the last year?
Taxes won't change since we buy it (meaning since taxes go by the home value, the price we pay for the house won't change things and make it go up?)

The numbers go up slowly, so you can assume not more than 100-200 max a year from the previous. When we bought we paid a drop more than the previous owners, not more than $100, every year it goes up though, and in different increments.

They don't usually reassess the houses that often and sometimes depending on when they do that the price will go down or up. Sadly though the tax rate keeps going up which is why your number will probably go up 1 to $200 like another mother mentioned.
