Real estate tax bills have been mailed

Van Wert County Treasurer Beverly Fuerst announces that real estate tax bills have been mailed and are due Wednesday, July 13.

Property owners who have not received a tax bill should call the treasurer’s office immediately at 419.238.5177.  Mailed payments must be postmarked on or before July 13 to avoid any penalty.

Taxpayers are reminded that credit card payments will not be accepted in the treasurer’s office.  Those who want to use a credit card to pay taxes can do so by visiting the treasurer’s website at www.vanwertcounty.org/treasurer. There will be a convenience fee charged for this service.

Fuerst encourages taxpayers to contact her office if interested in a monthly prepay tax installment plan or if they would like to have taxes automatically debited from their bank account each month.  Call or email Fuerst at treasurer@vanwertcounty.org for more information.
