Again, you must learn how your state decides its tax rate on your vehicle as it could spell the difference in what you pay every year. While your BMW may be valued at $33,550 you know that its real value is far less as you used your car extensively for business trips. With 167,000 miles on the odometer, your BMW is likely worth close to $18,000 with that high mileage taken into consideration.

While real property tax assessments are not updated annually, your personal property tax assessment should be. Thus, every year you own your vehicle, your trailer, or your boat, its value will decline. So, unless a state or county wide tax assessment has been conducted, you can expect to see your taxes drop every year on your existing personal property.

You can save money in your jurisdiction if the state determines that your personal property is assessed at is “true value in money.” This means that if you were to sell your car, it would get “X” amount on the market.

So, if this should be the case where you live, can you reduce your BMW personal property tax burden? According to local law you should be able to do so. Therefore, find out how you can appeal your taxes and what you must do to obtain a reduction. It may involve simply bringing your car to the tax office and letting a tax representative check your odometer. If it is as easy as that, then you can expect to receive a nice reduction in personal property taxes on the spot.
