Common questions about Spalding County property tax.

How much is property tax in Spalding County, Georgia?
Georgia taxes 40% of fair market value. Spalding County's 2025 unincorporated levies total about 31.65 mills (county 15.256, school 16.393). On a $350,000 home before exemptions that is about $4,431 a year, an effective rate near 1.27% of the price. Homestead exemptions - which vary by county and city - reduce that; the rates are from the Georgia Department of Revenue's 2025 tax digest.
How does Georgia property tax math work?
Three steps: your county assessor sets fair market value; Georgia assesses 40% of it (O.C.G.A. 48-5-7); each levy applies its millage to that assessed value, at $1 per mill per $1,000. A $350,000 home is assessed at $140,000, so one mill costs $140 a year.
When is the homestead exemption deadline in Spalding County?
April 1. File once with the Spalding County Tax Commissioner and it renews automatically while you own and occupy the home. Exemption amounts differ by county, city, age, and veteran status, so ask the county which local exemptions apply to you.
