The Tax Collector collects real estate taxes twice a year per NH RSA 76:15a.
The first bill of the year is an estimate and is one half of the previous year’s total, it is mailed at the end of May and due on or around July 1st.
The tax rate is set by the NH Department of Revenue in the fall.
The second issue tax bill is determined by the new tax rate and the assessed value as of April 1st of that calendar year. The second bill is due within 30 days of the billing date, on or around December 1st.
The Tax Collector accepts cash, certified bank checks, cashier’s checks, personal checks, and money orders. Online payment for property taxes is available here.
The ability to pay for unpaid 2025 taxes is temporarily disabled pending the lien execution on May 21st. Please provide a money order, bank check, or cash prior to May 21st at 1pm to avoid any unpaid 2025 taxes going to lien.
