Property Tax Installment Pre-Payment Program

Installment Pre-Payment Program


Advance Payments for 2017 Property Taxes


  • Application Period: December 1, 2016 through January 15, 2017

Background

The York County Council adopted the installment payment program in 2009 and below are the guidelines related to participation:
  • The installment payment option is for real-estate taxes only on non-escrowed parcels.
  • Current Year (2016) real-estate taxes must have been paid in full by January 15, 2017 to be eligible for the installment pre-payment option of estimated 2017 real estate taxes.
  • The York County installment option offers pre-payment of next year's taxes in six payments. The first 5 payments will be 1/6th of the 2016 tax amount and the 6th payment will be a "settle-up" payment based on the net amount due after deducting the 5 installment payments from the 2016 calculated tax amount. The installment payments are due on or before the following dates:
    • March 1, 2017
    • April 15, 2017
    • June 15, 2017
    • August 15, 2017
    • October 15, 2017
    • January 15, 2017
