Delinquent Real Estate Property Taxes

Property Tax

Processing options:

Real estate taxes are due by March 31. Starting April 1, unpaid real estate taxes become delinquent and accrue 3% interest. On May 1, a $6 advertising fee is added, and delinquent taxes are advertised in a local newspaper once a week for three consecutive weeks. Payments must be received by the last business day of the month in which they are made, postmarks are not accepted.

If payment is not received, a tax certificate will be sold through a competitive bid. View our Tax Certificate service page for more information on this process.
