Real estate taxes have two components; school property tax and municipal property tax. Both taxes are billed and collected by the town or city where the real estate is located.
A statewide education tax is imposed on all nonresidential and homestead property at the following rates: (1) the tax rate for nonresidential property is $1.59 per $100.00; and (2) the tax rate for homestead property is $1.10 multiplied by the district spending adjustment for the municipality, per $100.00, of equalized education property value. The homestead property tax rate for each municipality which is a member of a school district is calculated under subsection "e" of state statute section 5405. For rates by town, click here.
The Municipal Property Tax is based on the town's grand list and is used to fund the town's services. The rate varies in each town depending on the funds needed to operate municipal services. Eligible Vermont residents can make a claim for a rebate of their school and municipal property taxes if household income does not exceed $47,000. The rebate refunds the difference between a percentage of the claimant's household income and the eligible taxes. Eligible taxes are combined school and municipal property taxes less the education property tax payment. For more information, call 802-828-2865.

There is no inheritance and the estate tax is limited and related to federal estate tax collection.
