Real Estate Taxes
Horry County Tax Assessor's Office - (843) 248-1361
Georgetown County Tax Assessor's Office - (843) 546-1241
Real property (land, houses, buildings, mobile homes) tax notices are
mailed in October to Horry County and Georgetown County residents and
must be paid by January 15 of the following year in order to avoid
penalties. Taxes are based on the following percentages of assessed
value: commercial, 6%; residential, 4% or 6% (may only be 4% if you've
filed with the tax assessor's office to qualify as a year-round
resident); second home, 6%.
Homestead Exemption
Once you have established one-year residency and you are over the age of
65, you are eligible for a homestead exemption of $20,000. That
exemption, if applied to a $100,000 home, would reduce your property tax
by $173.00.
Income Tax
S.C. Department of Revenue - (843) 293-6550
South Carolina has a simplified income tax structure which follows the
federal income tax laws. South Carolina accepts the adjustments,
exemptions and deductions allowed on your federal return with few
modifications. Your federal taxable income is the starting point in
determining your state income tax liability.
Sales and Use Tax
South Carolina's sales and use tax rate is 5%. Neither Horry County nor
Georgetown County has a local option sales and use tax. Prescriptions,
dental prosthetics and hearing aids are exempt from the sales tax. Those
over the age of 85 are exempt from 1% of the sales tax. A maximum sales
tax of $300 is imposed on the purchase of motor vehicles, including
recreational vehicles, boats, motorcycles and airplanes.
Each gallon of gasoline is taxed at 16 cents. This tax is included in
the price per gallon at the gasoline pump.
