Did you buy a house this year?
It's property tax time and there's a chance you may receive more than one bill.
The first installment of annual Property Taxes is due on November 1st and will be delinquent if payment is not received or postmarked by December 10. You can mail your payment or pay online by making a payment from your checking account (no fee) or by using a debit/credit card (there is currently a cost of 2.25 percent of the transaction amount for this method of payment.) To pay online, go to the assessor's site here.
REMINDER: If you purchased your home between January 1 - May 31, your property taxes will be based on the old value and you will receive two supplemental tax bills probably by year end. Yes, you do need to pay these. For more information on supplemental tax bills and a detailed description of each field, click here.
