Plan ahead.  Before purchasing a vehicle it is always a good idea to find out how much your sales tax and license plates will cost.  If you call our office, we would be happy to give you an estimate  The weight is needed when licensing trucks and trailers.  If the vehicle has been licensed here previously we can find this information on past registrations.  If this is not the case, your best bet may be to weigh the truck or trailer before coming in to license.  If something is brand new, the weight is usually on the  MSO.  Sales tax on vehicles is due within 50 days of purchase to avoid penalty and interest regardless of permit expiration.

Property Taxes

Property taxes are mailed out in late September and are due, if paying by halves, by November 10th of that year.  The second half would be due by May 10th of the following year.  You also have the option of paying the full amount by December 31st of that year and not paying any penalty.

When purchasing a new home or refinancing your old one, it is always wise to make sure the taxes are current.
