Personal property depends on a surprisingly simple test: Can you physically move it? The outcome of that test determines the distinction between real property and personal property, which in turn has real implications for taxation.
A personal property tax is imposed by state or local governments on certain assets that can be touched and moved such as cars, livestock, or equipment. Personal property includes assets other than land or permanent structures such as buildings. These are considered to be real property.
Personal property in the State of Georgia is generally defined as any movable property; that is, property that is not permanently affixed to and part of real estate.
Possessions which can be easily moved and are not fixed in a permanent location, such as furniture, clothing, jewelry, books, and other personal items are not considered real property; instead, these items are classified as personal property.
Personal property is a class of property that can include any asset other than real estate. The distinguishing factor between personal property and real estate, or real property, is that personal property is movable, meaning it isn't fixed permanently to one particular location.
Personal-use property is not purchased with the primary intent of making a profit, nor do you use it for business or rental purposes.

The State of Georgia offers homestead exemptions to all qualifying homeowners. In some counties they have increased the amounts of their homestead exemptions by local legislation above the amounts offered by the State. As a general rule the exemptions offered by the county are more beneficial to the homeowner.
Tangible Personal Property includes all furniture, fixtures, tools, machinery, equipment, signs, leasehold improvements, leased equipment, supplies and any other equipment that may be used as part of the ordinary course of business or included inside a rental property.
The property value is the full market value appraised by the Assessors. All property in Georgia is taxed at an assessment rate of 40% of its full market value. Exemptions, such as a homestead exemption, reduce the taxable value of your property. Let's say this homeowner qualifies for an exemption of $2,000.
