Why can't I find an address that I know exists?

Sometimes the address that exists within county records does not correspond exactly to the address you have come to know. Enter only the minimum amount of information needed, such as the house number and the street name (leave off the street type).

How can I pay my taxes online?

You can pay the taxes for one or multiple properties at once. When viewing the Report for one property, you can click the link to Pay Taxes Online, which adds the 'Owed Amount' to your 'cart'. (Paying the half year amount is not available after a certain date.) Then search for a different property and repeat the process. When finished, click on the 'Pay $' link. This will take you to a third-party site to make your payments.
