If you still owe 2018 Real Estate Taxes, you may soon face a lien on your property and extra charges. Pay your past due Real Estate Tax bill by December 31 to avoid:
- A lien on your property, which will include a $91.45 charge
- Additional interest (0.75%) and penalty (1%) charges on your bill, every month
- Collection fees of between 10% and 18%, if we send your bill to a collection agency or a law firm
If added to your property tax bill, these charges and fees will sink you much deeper into debt. Eventually, your property could be sold at Sheriff Sale.
