Bedford County Property Tax Due Date

Virginia property taxes are administered at the city and county level — Virginia has independent cities that function separately from surrounding counties, unlike most other states. Property is assessed at 100% of fair market value, and reassessments are required at least every four years (many localities reassess annually). Virginia tax rates vary significantly by locality, with rates generally higher in Northern Virginia (due to proximity to Washington D.C.) and lower in rural areas. Virginia also taxes personal property (vehicles) at the local level.
