Home values and rent in Chardon
Countywide, Geauga County's median home value is $331,100 (ACS 2020-2024 5yr) — a Chardon-specific figure isn't independently published, so this reflects the whole county, not Chardon alone.

The county tax-drag math applies here
Chardon sits in Geauga County, where the effective property tax rate is 1.23% — below Ohio's 1.36% statewide average. The full worked PITIA and DSCR example, built on a property at the county's median value, is on the Geauga County page — here's the tax line specifically for a property at Chardon's own numbers:
- Property value used
- $331,100 (countywide)
- Geauga County effective tax rate
- 1.23%
- Estimated monthly property tax
- $339
That estimate uses an observed Ohio DSCR average of 7.20% (Q2 2026)¹ elsewhere in the full county example — this is a market observation, not an offer; your rate depends on your DSCR, credit, LTV and loan purpose, and is set by the lender, not by us.
