2025/26 Tax Warrant (tax rates and due dates are included herein.)
Important Information Regarding Your Property Taxes
- Property tax bills are generally mailed by mid-August, and taxes are collected in two installments. 60% is due September 15th and 40% is due February 15th.
- Change of Address: If your mailing address changes, please complete the form below.
- Pay on time to avoid interest and penalty: There is NO grace period. Payments must be received at the Town Office by the close of business on the due date or must be postmarked by the United States Postal Service on or before the due date to avoid interest and penalty.
- Escrow accounts: We are required to mail tax bills to the owner of record, regardless of whether your taxes are escrowed. If your mortgage company handles your property taxes through an escrow account, we strongly recommend you contact them to ensure they have your most current tax information.
- Online Bill Pay: Online Bill Pay checks typically arrive with no postmark. Checks dated for the due date but received after the due date will be considered late.
- Property Transfers: Tax bills reflect ownership as of April 1st of each year. If you purchased property after April 1st, the tax bill will be issued in the previous owner's name, but you should receive a copy as well. When a property transfers, the taxes are typically prorated between the buyer and seller at closing. Please contact your attorney, title company, or whoever handled your closing if you have questions as to who is responsible for paying the bill. Our office does not handle arrangements for prorated taxes.
- To request a copy of your tax bill or a statement showing the taxes paid in given year, please email Alyson Peterson at strattontax@townofstrattonvt.com.
- For questions regarding Assessed Value, please contact the Lister's Office at cbernard@townofstrattonvt.com.
- For questions regarding Homestead Declarations, State Payments, or Education Tax Rates, please contact the Vermont Department of Taxes.
