If you or someone you know is facing difficulties in managing your property taxes, consider reaching out to your county tax collector’s office for assistance.

Fortunately, many offices offer installment payment options. They can assist in dividing your annual tax obligation into smaller, more manageable installments, alleviating the burden of paying a lump sum at once.

For instance, Orange County’s tax collector in Orlando does a quarterly installment payment plan. For more information, just visit your tax collector’s website for detailed instructions.  If you don’t make arrangements and fall behind the county can put a tax lien on your home.  Investors can buy those tax certificates to earn interest on their money.
