Northwest Indiana Home Owners- Property Tax Exemption Filing Deadline Approaching Soon!
Home Owners in Lake County and Porter County in Northwest Indiana!
The deadline for filing your Property Tax Exemptions is fast approaching -> December 30th, 2010.
If you purchased a home this year in a city or town in Lake County, or Porter County in NW Indiana please verify that your homestead and mortgage exemptions have been properly filed with the county.
As experienced Professional REALTORS serving NW Indiana, we always send reminders to our clients via phone call or email and verify that the closing agent at the Title company includes a written reminder with instructions on how and where to file property tax exemptions as a new homeowner.
It has been our experience of late, that when we prepare for a listing appointment, we are finding many home owners have forgetten or overlooked filing these exemptions, resulting in their property taxes going up significantly!
Sometimes, we find that the exemptions were never filed, and for many years Home Owners pay an increased percentage in property taxes as compared to their neighbors due to this oversight. The exemptions cannot be retro-dated for any type of credit, so this is money you could have spent elsewhere!
