Assessment note: this home is assessed at $44,600 — well below the ~$61,832 its asking price implies at Berks County's common level ratio (34.4%). A sale near asking can invite a school-district assessment appeal that could raise the bill by roughly $464/year. Worth pricing in.

Recomputed from the county assessment ($44,600, 1994 base year) × current millage — portals typically reprint the recorded 2025 bill. Pennsylvania does not reassess on sale. Estimate only — verify with Berks County before relying on it. Learn more: PA property tax calculator · Common Level Ratio by county.
