Homeownership in Lambton Shores comes with a number of expenses, one of them being property taxes. This tax is crucial in providing local residents with essential services, including garbage collection, fire protection and policing. Each year, your municipality will determine its property tax rate, which typically lands between 0.5 and 2.5%. To determine how much property tax you'll pay, the city will multiply that tax rate by your home's current market value - which can fluctuate year-to-year depending on the value of neighbouring properties. This is why it's not necessarily correct when Lambton Shores homeowners assume that the bigger their house, the more they'll pay.
