Brooklyn Park property tax: where it goes

A Brooklyn Park house pays 1.818% of its taxable value in property tax. For a house at $337,300 of value before exemptions with the homestead exemption, that's about $4,876 a year.

Tax is levied on Taxable market value times the class rate gives tax capacity, which is taxed at the tax capacity rates; for class 1a residential homestead property the class rate is 1.00% on the first $500,000 of market value and 1.25% above; the homestead exclusion applies only to qualifying homesteads; the Osseo school rates are two separate levies (one on tax capacity, one on market value).

Ways to pay less

  • Apply for homestead by December 31. Homestead status can save you money on your property taxes. The homestead market value exclusion is 40% of value for homesteads valued at $95,000 or less (a maximum of $38,000), is reduced as values rise, and phases out at $517,200 or more. How: Apply with Hennepin County: you must own, occupy and apply by December 31.
  • Claim the Minnesota property tax refund. Minnesota homeowners may get a Property Tax Refund based on income and property taxes. How: File Form M1PR with the Minnesota Department of Revenue by August 15 (late filing allowed up to one year).
  • Paid property tax late? Ask for a penalty abatement. Hennepin County lets owners request an abatement of the late-payment penalty once every ten years, for current-year taxes. How: Pay the tax in full, then apply by June 30 (first half) or November 30 (second half).
