The 0.87% property tax rate reflects the county-level effective rate for Bellevue and is used to calculate your monthly tax escrow above. This rate may differ from the statewide Washington average — county-level data produces more accurate monthly payment estimates for Bellevue buyers. Many Bellevue properties also carry HOA fees — the area average is approximately $500/month, which is not included in the calculator above.
