Pre-Paid Property Taxes
Written by Nicole Darbaz
"What happens when the property taxes have been pre-paid for the year & I buy/sell the house?"
That's a great question.
When it comes to things like pre-paid property taxes or full oil tanks, they are apportioned at the lawyer's office on closing.
For example, if a home's property taxes have been prepaid up to December and the home closes in August:
- The seller will be reimbursed for the months wherein they will not be living there.
- The purchaser will have the same adjustment ADDED to their bill.
The same applies if the oil tank is full.
