Pay your property taxes conveniently and securely using our website.
FREE eCheck (electronic check) is a digital version of the paper check. The process mirrors paper checks, but is done electronically. The funds are withdrawn from the taxpayer’s bank account (usually a checking account), transferred over the ACH network, then deposited into the Tax Collector’s office bank account. There is no charge to use an electronic check.
To process your payment using a MasterCard, VISA, American Express, or Discover Card, our third party vendor charges a convenience fee of 2.25% (minimum of $1.95) for credit cards. The convenience fee is not retained by the Tax Collector.
Tax-defaulted properties may be purchased through our office via an Online Auction. The next tax sale is scheduled for August 12, 2023 through August 18, 2023.
The Treasurer-Tax Collector issues three major types of tax bills: secured for all homeowners, unsecured for any business and personal property not secured by property (e.g. land) and supplemental for changes in home ownerships or new construction. The Treasurer-Tax Collector issued the fifth largest number of secured tax bills in California with over 731,000 in the 2005-2006 fiscal year, which is just behind Orange, San Diego, Riverside and Los Angeles Counties.
