Property tax is modeled at De Soto’s ~1.45% median effective rate (Ownwell, Johnson County) applied to recent list prices; HOA is the ~$365/yr dues shown on current MLS listings (about $30/mo). Kansas reassesses annually, and newer De Soto communities can carry special benefit-district assessments that raise the actual bill — one recent Eagle Creek listing showed about $10,170 in annual tax.
