Maine has no statewide property tax cap; Kennebec County reassesses at market value, and your tax bill will reflect your purchase price. Apply for the Maine Homestead Property Tax Exemption ($7,500 off assessed value for primary residences) with the Kennebec County Assessor's office before April 1 of the year following your purchase. Request your property's assessment card from the assessor to verify the assessed value, confirm whether your municipality is in a revaluation year (which could increase your bill), and note the appeal deadline if you believe the assessment is inaccurate.
