For property tax purposes in Arizona, personal property is defined as all types of property except real estate. Taxable personal property includes property used for commercial, industrial, and agricultural purposes. Personal property is considered to be movable and not permanently attached to real estate.
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.
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-use property is not purchased with the primary intent of making a profit, nor do you use it for business or rental purposes.
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.
Qualifications. Age: At least one property owner must be the minimum qualifying age of 65 at the time of application. Residence: The property must be the owner(s) primary residence. A "primary" residence is that residence which is occupied by the property owner(s) for an aggregate of nine months of the calendar year.
Assessed value = Property tax bill x (100 / Tax rate) Example: If your property tax bill is $3,400 and your county's department of finance tells you the real-estate tax rate is 1%, you can see that your assessed value is $340,000.
