PAYING OFF A PROPERTY MORTGAGE? Please notify the Tax Collector if you pay off a mortgage so that all future correspondence and property tax payment bills are mailed to the correct address and not to the mortgage company. The mortgage company will not notify the municipality.

Tax bills are mailed once per year. Property owners will receive either a tax bill, to be used when making a quarterly tax payment, or a tax bill advice copy, provided to the property owner when a mortgage company makes the quarterly tax payments. The tax bill advice copy is to be used by the property owner once the mortgage has been satisfied.
