Property Taxes
Taxes are based on the true market value of the property. Values are reduced to taxable or listed values and reduced by the $10,000 exemption. The balance is multiplied by the local tax rate. For homeowners 65 and older who earn $23,000 or less, up to $5,000 or 75% of the taxable value of their property, whichever is less, may be exempt from state taxes. Call 888-644-6778 for details.
Inheritance and Estate Taxes
Ohio has no inheritance tax but an estate tax is levied against the value of a resident decedent's gross estate less deductions and exemptions. Graduated rates range through six taxable estate brackets from 2% on taxable values of under $40,000 to $23,600 plus 7% on taxable value exceeding $500,000. Each estate receives a tax credit which is $13,900 for deaths in 2002. Call 800-977-7711 for details.
