Pay Property Tax Monthly with Pre-Tax Dollars
Add $300.00 a month to your spendable income

We currently use after tax dollars to pay our property taxes twice a year.
There is a much better way.
We would have an employer County property payroll account deduction. If your property tax is $6,000 you could pay $500 a month pre-tax into your account. Your tax is $12,000 you could pay $1,000 a month into your account pre-tax. Here’s an example.
If your gross income is $8,000 a month you pay 30% payroll taxes of $2,400, leaving you $5,600 and a property tax bill.
Let’s take the $8,000 deduct $1,000 Pre-Tax leaving $7,000. Tax on $7,000, $2,100. Leaving you $1,000 in your account and $4,900 for a total of $5,900.

These accounts work with escrow. These accounts will reduce the number of owners with back tax issues. The County will withdraw monthly tax due. We can also create a pre-tax rent account so that renters can save money.
