Assessment note: this home is assessed at $149,690 — well below the ~$199,940 its asking price implies at Montgomery County's common level ratio (30.8%). A sale near asking can invite a school-district assessment appeal that could raise the bill by roughly $2,071/year. Worth pricing in.

Recomputed from the county assessment ($149,690, 1996 base year) × current millage — portals typically reprint the recorded 2026 bill. Pennsylvania does not reassess on sale. Estimate only — verify with Montgomery County before relying on it. Learn more: PA property tax calculator · Common Level Ratio by county.
