Example: October 1, 2017, assessed value is the value used to determine property taxes for the fiscal year 2018, which runs July 1, 2018 - June 30, 2019. An owner can contest and appeal the assessed value in case an owner believes the assessed value is too high. *If you intend to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hawaiipropertytax.com\/forms\/Appeals%20-%20General%20Information.pdf\">appeal an assessment<\/a>, make sure to have actual recent sold data to support your claim. Appeals can be filed online using this PDF form: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hawaiipropertytax.com\/docs\/RP%20Form%2019-91%20Appeal%20Application%20(03-2019).pdf\">RP Form 19-91 (Appeal Application)<\/a><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><strong>New Construction<\/strong><br>For new construction, not completed yet, the appraiser will typically look at the costs of the building permits the developer takes out at the County of Hawaii\u2019s Department of Planning &amp; Permitting, which is normally a fraction of actual market value and a major reason why new construction oftentimes have 1-year or longer with property taxes that are substantially below where property taxes should be, based on market value. Example: If a new home is completed in May 2019 the property taxes for the fiscal year 2019 (July 1, 2019 - June 30, 2020) will be based on assessed value on October 1, 2018, which is a date prior to the house being completed, and there is a good chance property taxes will be low, relative to market value, since the assessed value is determined in great part based on the costs of the builder\u2019s building permits. Come October 1, 2019, there will be sales data (at the least May 2019 original sales prices) and it is likely the assessed value for fiscal 2020 (July 1, 2020 - June 30, 2021) will be much closer to the home\u2019s market value.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><strong>Hawaii County (Big Island) Property Tax Rates<\/strong><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:table -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Property Class<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Taxable per\/$1000<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Affordable Renting Housing<\/td><td>$6.15<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Agricultural\/Native Forests<\/td><td>$9.35<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Apartment<\/td><td>$11.70<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Commercial<\/td><td>$10.70<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Conservation<\/td><td>$11.55<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Homeowner<\/td><td>$6.15<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Hotel\/Resort<\/td><td>$11.55<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Industrial<\/td><td>$10.70<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Residential (less than $2M)<\/td><td>$11.10<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Residential (more than $2M)<\/td><td>$13.60<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><figcaption>(Fiscal Year Beginning July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<!-- \/wp:table -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><strong>Review Property Assessed Values &amp; Property Taxes<\/strong><br>Click here to <a href=\"https:\/\/qpublic.schneidercorp.com\/Application.aspx?AppID=1048&amp;LayerID=23618&amp;PageTypeID=2&amp;PageID=9876\">review the <\/a>assessed value of any property in Hawaii County.

Fee Simple ownership includes the land and the buildings thereon. A Fee Simple condominium includes the actual condominium unit and the proportionate interest in the land underneath plus the proportionate interest in the common and limited common elements of the project. Common elements could include the lobby, elevator, walkways, swimming pool, etc. Fee Simple owners are responsible for their property taxes and sometimes association dues and or maintenance fees in the case of a condominium.\u00a0<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><strong>Leasehold<\/strong>&nbsp;ownership only includes the buildings, but not ownership of the land! A Leasehold condominium includes the actual condominium unit and the proportionate interest in the common and limited common elements of the project but not the ownership of the land. Someone else (the fee owner) owns the land and the Leasehold owner only leases (rents) the land at terms defined in the lease document. Prices for leasehold properties may appear very affordable, but remember, the price reflects a value without ownership in the land.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Potential buyers of leasehold property should proceed with caution with a full understanding of leasehold terms:\u00a0Leasehold owners pay a monthly lease rent to the landowner. Per the terms of the lease, the lease rent could increase over time and is payable above and beyond the property taxes and any possible association dues or maintenance fees.\u00a0Per the terms of the Lease, there may be restrictions on property usage, alterations, and maintenance.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Financing for Leasehold properties could be more difficult depending on how short the remaining lease term is.\u00a0Generally, lenders require the lease to be at least 5 years longer than the loan term. So, a 15-year loan would tend to require at least 20 years remaining on the lease. The terms and details of the Lease can vary for different properties and the risks of \u2018Step-Up Lease Rent\u2019, \u2018Lease Renegotiation\u2019, and \u2018Lease Expiration\u2019 need to be carefully considered.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/div><\/li><li class=\"accordion__item \"><div class=\"accordion__header \" data-id=\"post-6596\" data-item=\"hfaq-post-6596\" style=\"background:#FFFFFF;\" data-tags=\"\"><div class=\"accordion__title\">Property Values: Assessed vs Appraised vs Market<\/div><\/div><div class=\"accordion__body\" style=\"background:#FCFCFC;\"><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><strong>Tax Assessed Value<\/strong><br>The tax assessor establishes an assessed value for the purpose of collecting the appropriate property taxes. Big Island assessed property values are established once every year on October 1 based on \u2018comparable sales\u2019 (similar size &amp; location) that recorded prior to July 1st of a given year while also considering any market movements up until October 1.<br><br>The assessed value on October 1 determines taxes for the following fiscal year, which begins the following year on July 1.\u00a0That means tax assessed values lag behind the real market value by at least one year. Note: The tax assessor rarely inspects the inside\/condition of the property, which means the tax assessor may lack information to consider such as expensive upgrades versus original or even tear down condition. Additionally, the tax assessor does not adjust for gorgeous ocean views, beautiful landscaping, or property frontage.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>For example, a property in Kona with great ocean views, spectacular landscaping, and stunning curb appeal might have the same tax assessed value as a \u2018similar property on a nearby busy street with a dilapidated interior and no view of the ocean. While both properties might have the same tax assessed value, the true market value for both properties could differ substantially. Hence, one of the reasons why lenders don\u2019t use assessed value in their loan calculations since it\u2019s far from an 'accurate' or reliable indicator of the real market value.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><strong>Appraised Value<\/strong><br>The appraised value <em>(appraisal) <\/em>is a professional value opinion completed for a fee by a licensed appraiser, often hired by mortgage lenders. &nbsp;A licensed appraiser determines the appraised value by researching and comparing most recent <em>(during the last few months)<\/em> comparable sales <em>(similar size &amp; location)<\/em> and uses certain predetermined detailed criteria to make adjustments for condition, upgrades, functionality, layout, etc.&nbsp;While appraisers have to be very detailed and follow specific formulas, 10 different appraisers still might come up with 10 different value opinions!&nbsp;&nbsp; Keep in mind, that appraisals are subject to the person performing the appraisal (appraiser), and even with a high degree of detailed analysis and specific formulas used for calculations, the end result can often be different from one appraisal to the next.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><strong>Real Market Value<\/strong><br>The real market value is the price that a willing and able buyer pays for a property at that time.&nbsp;This could be affected by several market dynamics.
