When are your property taxes due?

December 15th, 2007 at 04:08 am

I was just curious.

Ours are generally due April 10 & Dec. 10. They have some earlier due dates (lord knows when) but you can pay these dates without penalty. Of course, these are the dates everyone pays. (Cali).

We got a reprieve to 12/31 because they screwed up and had to lower our bill. Fine with me!

But anyway, I was just thinking, who picked these dates???? I am sure April 10 is fine with tax refunds and all that.

But Dec. 10? Christmas time? Seems everyone I know is hurting with christmas bills and property taxes. whine whine whine.

We saved all year for property taxes and don't spend much on christmas so no whining here. Just got me thinking to why the government picked these dates. ??? & why does it seem like ALL my bills are due this month anyway. Well, I know why they didn't pick January. Most people are too broke to pay their taxes then, I Am sure. Figured they get their money in right before Christmas?

    Ours are due 31 January, though why people wouldn't pay them 31 December I don't understand. Ours went up (ugh) over 5 percent this year, and I see they're NOT adjusting for the downward house price trend.

    What I don't get is why if they brake it up into two payments, the due dates aren't 6 months apart. I'm in CA as well, and I think the "due by" dates are something like Nov and Feb, even though the penality dates are Dec and April. So you get 1 month grace period for the 1st installment, and something like 3 months for the 2nd installment. Makes no sense at all.

    I was laughing at the bad timing of the civic organization who call themselves the "Name of Town Foundation", and who decided to send out their annual solicitation for donations the same day as the ugly property tax bills.
