Canopy MLS uses the “City Taxes Paid To” field to indicate which city government has levied property taxes on a given property.  Listing agents should ensure the data is accurate in the “City Taxes Paid To” field by choosing the city to which property taxes are paid.  If a listed property is not subject to any city taxes, the selection “No City Taxes Paid” should be used.

The best way to determine if the property is subject to city taxes is to check the most recent tax bill available from the owner or county tax/GIS website.

If you spot an error on a listing, try notifying the listing agent first to bring this to their attention. If necessary, you can report an error to Canopy MLS by clicking the “Report Data Error” link under the primary photo of the listing.  Erroneous data in the “City Taxes Paid To” field is a Category I violation of the Canopy MLS Rules and Regulations.  The first inaccurate data violation is treated as a warning, a second violation carries a $100 fine, and fines increase for repeat violations.
