Best Answer

In New Jersey, property taxes are a continuous lien on the real estate. Property taxes are due in four installments during the year: February 1, May 1, August 1, and November 1. Interest on delinquent taxes is charged. If the property owner fails to pay the property tax that is due within a certain time period, the property may be subject to foreclosure, either by the municipality or by a third party who has purchased the tax lien from the municipality.

Does a renter of a house have to pay property taxes on it?

The answer technically is "NO" because the owner of the house pays the taxes. However, if it is stated in the lease that the renter signs, and the owner charges the property taxes, the answer would be yes. But, technically the owner legally pays property taxes on their home. If a renter signs a lease with this worded as such, the owner is scamming you and your rent will be higher than it should be. Do not sign it!
