If you are dealing with property tax problems, you might be worried about your ability to pay them back. The consequences of not paying your taxes can result in losing your home if the problem is not taken care of.

What are Your Options When Selling Your NJ House?

Pay Them Off

The best and most obvious option is to pay them off. But how do you do it if you are struggling to do pay them in the first place? You can create a savings and repayment plan or work with your local property appraiser to try to get them lowered.

Saving Plan

Sit down with a financial planner or someone who can help you take a good hard look at your finances. A fresh perspective on your spending might be exactly what you need to pay off your debts. Formulate a plan to save a set amount each month and use that to pay down the balance of your property taxes. The county is unlikely to issue a tax lien if you are making regular payments to your outstanding balance. Keep in mind, you will not only need to pay back the back taxes, but also the fees, penalties and interest that have piled up.

Negotiate

Often times you can work with the property appraiser to have your property taxes lowered if you believe they have been assessed incorrectly. You won’t be able to negotiate the rate of which you are taxed, however, you can negotiate the assessed value of your home. Check to make sure they have the specs of you house notated correctly. Don’t let them say you have 3 bathrooms when you really only have 2.5. The assessor will look at other homes in your area and what they are selling for. Sometimes you need to dive deeper into the numbers. If you are going to challenge the value the assessor has placed on your home, make sure you have comparable houses to compare it to.

Find Someone To Help

A Loan

While it might not make sense to replace one debt with another, getting a tax loan from a private lender can provide temporary assistance should you be on the verge of having your tax lien auctioned. Before you agree to the loan, make sure you read the fine print and understand the repayment terms. The interest can be high and there can be severe penalties for nonpayment. Before you find yourself in this situation, explore all of the options available to you.
