Some counties have property tax estimator tools where you input the sale value of a home and it will show what the estimated property tax will be.
Most of these work fairly well but are based on whole-county averages.
It should have two modes, Manual or Map Mode.
Manual Mode:
Users should be shown a small UI where they can pick the "Tax District" for that county (from a dropdown) and an input for "Sale Price".
Results should be formulated by getting the avg millage rate from all tax records from that county and tax district.
Map Mode:
Given the current view of parcels a user should be able to click something like "Cost to Move here" and it avg the property tax from all the parcels in the view. If they type in a Sale Price number then an avg millage rate should be calculated and used.
Edge case:
- If they are on tax district or county boundaries the resulting number could be thrown off a bit. Could have them draw a boundary shape like Zillow has. Or if they are in this mode maybe it could also outline the tax districts and they could pick that way?
