Property Transfers

transfer property

 

By law, property taxes are based on ownership as of April 1st. Bills are mailed to that address.

If you sell your property after April 1st:
  • You are responsible for forwarding the tax bill to the new owner
  • The new owner is responsible for knowing the due dates and paying the taxes
If your property is subdivided after April 1st:
  • Your bill will still cover the entire original parcel
  • You are responsible for making sure the tax bill is paid in full
For legal advice about transfers, prorated taxes, or escrow arrangements, contact your attorney.
