Taxes & Assessments

Realty (property) taxes are levied by the town. Taxes provide the main source of revenue to deliver services supplied by the town, the region and school boards located in Oakville.

Properties are assigned a tax class depending on the use or purpose of each property. Annual tax rates are set and applied to each tax class. The tax levy for property is calculated by using the applicable tax rate and the assessed value assigned to each property. To look up your property tax assessment use the Tax Assessment Comparison Tool.
