Gwinnett property tax bills due Oct. 15

Gwinnett County Tax Commissioner Richard Steele is reminding property owners that 2017 property tax bills are due Oct. 15. Taxpayers may choose to make a single payment or partial payments as long as the total due is paid by the due date.

New this year, property owners may schedule payments in advance at www.GwinnettTaxCommissioner.com. Paperless billing is also available.

For property owners with escrow accounts, tax information is available to mortgage companies; however, it is ultimately the responsibility of the property owner to ensure taxes are paid by the due date. If there are questions about who will pay the taxes, homeowners should contact their mortgage company directly, especially if their mortgage company has recently changed.
