What if I didn purchase the property until some time during the previous year? Why am I getting a tax bill for the full year?
You should have been credited at the closing for the tax owing for the part of the year you did not own the property. You will need to check your closing documents to verify this fact. If you have any questions regarding your closing, you will need to contact your closing agent. Please understand that real property tax is attached to the real estate and not to the owner.
