When your mortgage is paid or if it is sold to another mortgage company, it is the owner’s responsibility under the Ohio Revised Code to see that this office is advised in order that the tax bill will be sent to the correct address.

Every effort is made to see that you receive your tax bills; however, Section 323.13 of the Ohio Revised Code provides that the property owner is responsible for payments (plus any penalties and interest) even if you did not receive your bill. Please call us at once if you did not receive your bill or if you have any indication that your tax bill may have been misdirected.
