Frequently Asked Questions About New Hampshire Property Taxes

What is the average property tax rate in New Hampshire?

New Hampshire has one of the highest effective property tax rates in the nation at approximately 1.93%. The state has no income tax and no sales tax, so local governments rely almost entirely on property taxes to fund services.

How does property tax work in New Hampshire?

New Hampshire does not have county property taxes. All property taxes are levied by cities and towns. Each municipality sets its own tax rate and conducts assessments. There is no state oversight of local assessment practices.

Are there property tax exemptions in New Hampshire?

Yes. New Hampshire offers exemptions for veterans, blind persons, and elderly and disabled residents with limited incomes. Some towns also offer additional local exemptions. Contact your local assessor's office to apply.

How do I appeal my New Hampshire property tax assessment?

File an abatement application with your local Board of Selectmen or assessor by March 1 following the tax bill. Bring comparable sales data or an independent appraisal. If denied, you can appeal to the New Hampshire Board of Tax and Land Appeals or Superior Court.

When are New Hampshire property taxes due?

New Hampshire property tax due dates vary by municipality. Most towns bill twice per year — typically in July and December. Check with your town tax collector for exact due dates.
