I receive many questions regarding what our property taxes are here. So this week’s blog looks at Sevier County property taxes on mountain homes. The property tax rate is per $100 assessed value of the home. County tax for Sevier County is $1.63 per $100 assessed value. City tax per $100 assessed value is: Sevierville is $0.31. Pigeon Forge is $0.200, Gatlinburg is $0.1493, and Pittman Center is .85. The ratio of assessment is 25% for residential/rental property. This applies to owner occupied homes and second homes. See the examples below for a home assessed at $100,000 and $250,000.

There is no Income Tax
Many visitors to our area find our property taxes very reasonable. The planning and working with tourist traffic over the years has helped to develop the Sevier County infrastructure. The influx of visitors provided a revenue stream that has assisted in sharing the costs for developing the area. This has helped to keep costs lower for residents by maintaining reasonable local living taxes.
