Up here in the frozen north, our property taxes are based on an assessed value of the property, and are paid to the local municipal or regional gov. to pay for local serivces (sewer, roads, garbage collection,etc.)

2 - When you say sales tax, do you pay only Federal sales tax?

1. Property tax is paid to the county.

2. Depending on what you buy and where you live, there can be local, state and federal sales taxes.
