Calculation model federal model

Property tax rate B in Leipzig2022 → 2026: −200 points

From 2025 the rate applies to new property values. A higher rate does not by itself mean a higher tax – compare your old and new notices.

Property tax (Grundsteuer) is calculated as assessed base amount (Grundsteuermessbetrag, shown on the notice from your tax office) × the local rate (Hebesatz). In Leipzig the rate for residential and commercial property (Grundsteuer B) was 450 % in 2026; for farmland and forestry (Grundsteuer A) it was 600 %.

In 2022, before the reform, the rate was 230 points above the median in Sachsen (420 %). In 2022, before the reform, the rate was 270 points above the median in Germany (380 %).

Since 2025 the new property-tax values apply; many municipalities adjusted their rates. Your notice from the municipality (Grundsteuerbescheid) is binding.
