Formula Used

The rental real estate tax is calculated using the following formula:

Property Tax = (Assessed Value × Tax Rate) - Deductions

Where:

Assessed Value - The value of the property used to determine tax liability
Tax Rate - The tax rate specific to your state or region
Deductions - Any applicable deductions or credits

The net rental income is calculated as:

Net Income = Rental Income - Property Tax

Worked Example

Let's walk through an example calculation:

Annual rental income: $48,000
Assessed property value: $300,000
Tax rate: 1.2% (for this example)
Deductions: $5,000

Calculating the property tax:

Property Tax = ($300,000 × 0.012) - $5,000 = $3,600 - $5,000 = -$1,400

Since the result is negative, the property owner would receive a refund of $1,400.

Calculating net income:

Net Income = $48,000 - (-$1,400) = $49,400

In this example, the landlord would have a net income of $49,400 after taxes and deductions.
