What makes up Chapel Hill’s 2.8751 property tax rate?
Marshall County’s 1.9687 per $100 of assessed value plus Chapel Hill’s 0.9064 gives the town’s tax year 2025 total of 2.8751, per the Comptroller’s Tax Aggregate Report. Chapel Hill’s city share is larger than Columbia’s 0.8251 or Spring Hill’s 0.739.
Bills come from Marshall County Trustee Scottie Poarch at 1102 Courthouse Annex in Lewisburg, and Assessor of Property Jennifer Neill sets values from 3300 Courthouse Annex. Chapel Hill grew from 1,717 to an estimated 1,897 residents between April 2020 and July 2024, a 10.5% increase. Haven’s personal tax preparation takes the property bill into account when a Chapel Hill household itemizes, and the service areas page compares the other towns.
Why is Chapel Hill’s sales tax 9.25% when Franklin’s is 9.75%?
Marshall County’s rate is lower. The Department of Revenue’s fourth-quarter 2026 rate file puts Marshall County and Chapel Hill at 9.25%, half a percentage point under the 9.75% charged throughout Williamson County, Franklin included, and throughout Maury County.
Cheatham County’s own rate is also 9.25%, though its three towns each charge 9.75%. In Marshall County the town and the county match. For a Chapel Hill business that sells goods, 9.25% is the rate its records should show for sales in town, and Haven’s bookkeeping keeps those records month by month so the year-end figures need no reconstruction.
Can a Chapel Hill household deduct car loan interest?
Yes. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act lets a household deduct up to $10,000 a year of car loan interest for 2025 through 2028. IRS fact sheet FS-2025-03 puts the start of the phase-out at $100,000 of modified adjusted gross income, or $200,000 for joint filers.
The lender’s year-end statement of interest paid is the document to hold on to. The IRS default for keeping records is three years, and anyone with employees keeps employment tax records for four. Haven’s tax planning checks whether a household’s income sits near the phase-out before the year ends, while there is still time to act on it, and the return then claims what the year allows.
