We get tax bills in Oct, but you have until the end of Jan to pay before late penalties start to accrue. This is convenient because we have the option of bringing the payment into the current year or wait until the next which can be handy for federal income tax itemization.
So I generally wait until Jan to pay unless there is some tax advantage to paying in Dec.
Hmm. We have a house here in the RGV (Cameron county). We get a 3% discount if paid by end of October so I usually do this.
