What if I didn't get a tax bill?

Bills are sent to the address of the last known owner by state law. The Tax Assessor's Office updates its records according to deed transfers received from the Carroll County Registry of Deeds after they are recorded. Your attorney or closing company should have checked the status of taxes due. However, it is your responsibility, as the new owner, to make sure they are paid and to advise us of your mailing address in writing. If you have questions about this, refer to your closing statement and/or give us a call. Interest at 12% per annum is charged on tax bills not paid by the due date.
