You dont pay it at all. The owner of a property pays all the tax. If the taxes are steep they may charge more rent then they would if the taxes are low. |

Renters don't generally pay things like taxes or condo fees. Those are the responsibility of the owner and it is to the owner's advantage to make absolutely CERTAIN that they are paid in full and on time, or they can lose the property. I've never heard of an owner off-loading those expenses directly onto a tenant, but of course these expenses are figured into the amount of rent that you pay. |

If you are renting, the property tax should not be your responsibility at all- that is for the people that own the house. |

The property tax for the building you are living in is the responsibility of the building owner and is usually calculated into the rent to cover that expense by the owner. However.....any other personal property you own, such as vehicles and furnishings, depending on the laws of your community, are YOUR responsibility. |

As a renter, they are the landlords responsibility. |

Apartment or house taxes are by the owner....not your responsibility. |

In most cases not at all. Responsibility of owner who usually adds the tax amount into the overhead when he figures out how much he needs to charge for rent. There can be exceptions, but they would be noted in the lease and you would certainly have been told. |

You don't pay property taxes when you're renting....that's the owner's burden, not yours. |

I have rented for a year now and the owner of the house pays the property tax because they are the ones who own the property |

WHen a landlord figures out rent, he totals all of his expenses and thats how he determines what to charge. So in that is let's say for example... is his mortgage pmt, taxes, insurance, water electric (if you arent paying them) maintaince....
But they dont TELLyou you are paying all of that... obviously. |

You have nothing to do with paying the taxes. The person
owning the property pays the taxes. So your answer is not at all.
The rent you are paying helps the owner pay the taxes, insurance, mortgage payment (If they have a mortgage)etc.
What I would suggest you do when renting an apt. or house,
is take out a renter Insurance policy of your own. Should the
apartment or house you are renting have a mishap, fire etc.
that your items in that house is covered. It does not cost that
much and at least you would be able to replace some of your things. He is not responsible for YOUR items.
You can read more up on this by just typing
renter insurance in your address line.
I realize you were not asking that......however, thought because of your question on property taxes....you might be interested. |

Unless otherwise noted, my landlords will set the rent at an amount that allows them to make some income (if very little) and pay whatever bills come with the property, including taxes, insurance, mortgage, etc. After working in the rental business for several years, I haven't seen a company charge the tenant the property tax seperately, but always ask to make sure they won't send you a bill later on. |

If you rent, the property owner is responsible for paying the property tax. Most landlords figure that in when renting properties so they make enough to cover it. But don't worry, as a renter that's not your responsibility -- just pay your rent on time and everything will be cool. |
