Clovis property tax: where it goes
A Clovis house pays 1.171% of its taxable value in property tax, plus flat charges on the same bill. For a house at $503,700 of market value with the homeowners' exemption, that's about $5,834 a year.
Tax is levied on assessed value under Proposition 13: the full cash value on the 1975-76 tax bill or, after that, the appraised value when the home was purchased, newly constructed or changed ownership, with increases limited to 2% a year.
