Indiana has adopted a property tax structure that includes constitutional tax caps, a flat state income tax, and no state inheritance tax.Here is what property owners should know about its caps, its rates, and the details that are easy to miss.
Over the past fifteen years, Indiana has deliberately shaped one of the more predictable and low-tax structures in the country, and it has not happened by accident. For property owners in particular, a handful of features stand out. These tax policies are one of several factors that may influence where people and businesses choose to locate.
The centerpiece is Indiana's property tax cap, often called the circuit breaker. Written into the state constitution by voters in 2010, it limits an annual property tax bill to a fixed share of a property's gross assessed value: 1 percent for an owner-occupied home, 2 percent for other residential property, and 3 percent for commercial property. Because the limit is constitutional rather than an ordinary statute, local governments cannot simply vote it away. For a residential rental property, the relevant ceiling is the 2 percent cap. And the effective property tax rate, what a typical owner actually pays, sits at about 0.76 percent of assessed value, among the lower rates in the country.
Indiana charges a single flat income tax rate rather than climbing brackets, and that rate has been steadily declining. It fell to 2.95 percent in 2026 and is scheduled to drop to 2.90 percent in 2027, with the possibility of further cuts toward 2.55 percent by 2030 if state revenue targets are met. One detail is easy to miss, though: every Indiana county adds its own local income tax on top of the state rate. In Clark County, that local rate is 2%, so a resident's combined 2026 income tax works out to roughly 4.95 percent, not the state figure on its own. That combined rate remains below the top marginal income tax rates in many states, although comparisons vary depending on state tax structures.
Two more features round out the picture. Indiana's sales tax is a flat 7 percent statewide, and unlike most states, no city or county adds a local sales tax on top, so the rate is the same wherever you are. Indiana also has no inheritance or estate tax, having repealed its inheritance tax years ago, which matters for anyone thinking about passing property to the next generation.
Property taxes and other state taxes are among the many factors that can affect the economics of owning residential property. Indiana's constitutional property tax caps, flat state income tax, and absence of a state inheritance tax contribute to the state's overall tax framework. Along with employment trends, population growth, housing demand, and other local economic factors, these characteristics may be relevant when evaluating real estate opportunities.

Neptune does not have a public trading market for its Series Interests. While it intends to seek a quotation on PPEX, an alternative trading system (ATS) operated by North Capital Investment Technology, Inc. (“PPEX”) with a view to providing our holders of Series Interests with potential liquidity in the form of a secondary market for their investment in our Series Interests. However, there can be no guarantee that a secondary market may develop, or if it does, as to the volume or pricing with respect to any secondary trading that might develop. The PPEX does not employ market makers to provide liquidity, unlike national securities exchanges. Until Neptune’s Series Interests are listed, if ever, you may not sell the company’s Series Interests. Therefore, it may be difficult for you to sell Neptune’s Series Interests at the time you wish to do so, if you are able to sell them at all. If you are able to sell your Series Interests, you may have to sell them at a substantial discount to their public offering price. Because of the illiquid nature of our Series Interests, you should purchase Neptune’s Series Interests only as a long-term investment and be prepared to hold them for an indefinite period of time.
