How do I set up automatic property tax payments?
By Bob Millaway, South Jersey Community Expert & REALTOR®
If your property taxes are not escrowed by your mortgage lender, you can set up automatic payments through your municipal tax collector's online portal. Most Burlington County towns accept electronic payments via ACH transfer or credit card. Alternatively, you can schedule recurring payments through your bank's bill pay service. Check with your town for available options.
Why It Matters
Automatic payments prevent missed deadlines, late penalties, and the risk of tax liens. One missed payment can trigger interest charges and fees.
