Real Estate Tax
The Board of Supervisors approves the real estate millage for the Township as part of the annual budget. The 2010 millage is
- 2.02 mills for General Purpose
- 0.73 mills for Debt Service
- 0.40 mills for Fire Protection
- 0.05 mills for Fire Hydrant (if applicable. Levied if a house is located within 780 feet of a fire hydrant)
The Township is one of three entities that levies real estate taxes. The Wissahickon School District and Montgomery County establish their real own real estate tax rates.
Two real estate tax bills are sent annually. A Whitpain Township and Montgomery County bill is sent around March 1. A bill for the Wissahickon School District is sent around July 1. Real estate taxes are based on the assessed value determined by the Montgomery County Board of Assessments. Appeals for reassessment must be made directly to the Montgomery County Board of Assessments.
Patty Nelson is the Township’s elected real estate tax collector. The tax collector’s office is in the rear of the Township Building and is open Tuesday & Thursday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and Wednesday from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. During the final weeks for payment, hours will be extended. Schedule for these weeks will be available on the office telephone recording and website. Real estate tax bills may be paid in person at TD Bank on Swede Road.
The 2011/12 Real Estate Tax Bill for the Wissahickon School District will be mailed on June 29th. You should receive them by Friday, July 1st.
