Tax Certificates
Ordering tax certificates
A Tax Certificate is a legal document indicating the financial status of taxes for a property.
The certificate indicates whether taxes for a specific property are paid, in arrears, or paid via the County's Tax Prepayment Plan.
Tax Certificates are often requested by law firms and financial institutions during the sale or purchase of a property. You can request a Property Tax Certificate online through the Online Payments portal or by email.
