Property taxes were due on August 13, and late payments and interest charges have been assessed on unpaid tax bills. The next interest charges will be applied in December. “Our office is committed to doing everything we can to help residents stay current on their property taxes and, most importantly, stay in their homes,” said Cuyahoga County Treasurer Brad Cromes. “We offer a variety of payment options for those who have fallen behind, and we encourage anyone who needs additional support to visit our Financial Empowerment Center. Our goal is to work with residents, connect them with the right resources, and guide them toward financial stability.” Under Ohio law, delinquent property taxes accumulate compounding penalties and interest charges. If left unresolved, those charges can result in significantly higher tax burdens and, ultimately, foreclosure. The Treasurer’s Office offers a variety of delinquent tax payment plans to help property owners get back on track, while making smaller payments over time. Payment plans may be extended for up to 60 months, with interest deferred. If those payment plans are successfully completed, interest charges are forgiven. Property owners can also arrange for monthly automatic payments to be deducted from their bank accounts. To remain in good standing, property owners enrolled in a delinquent tax payment plan will need to pay their current property taxes on time. While a delinquent tax payment plan remains in good standing, the associated parcel will not be subject to a tax certificate sale or placed on the Sheriff’s Sale list. Residents experiencing financial challenges are encouraged to seek assistance from the Cuyahoga County Financial Empowerment Center. There, residents can speak with counselors one-on-one for help with budgeting, debt reduction, preventing foreclosures, and creating greater financial stability. Residents can explore options for setting up a delinquent tax contract in person on a walk-in basis at the Treasurer’s Office located at 2079 E. 9th Street Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. For more information about delinquent tax assistance, contact the Treasurer’s Office at 216-443-7400 (option 1).
