About these numbersSources and dates

Tax value

Tax value from the county’s last revaluation, not a market price.

The county's fair market value from its last countywide reassessment (every fifth year, S.C. Code 12-43-217) or from the last sale (an assessable transfer resets it), not a market estimate. Taxes are on a capped (15%) value times 4% or 6%.

Parcel outline

The outline and its edge lengths are measured on the parcel map the map draws; the aerial loads from the public imagery named under it.
