Housing Tip of The Week

Last week, our office sent letters to District 14 residents who are on tax sale. If you received this letter, please contact our office and we will help. As a reminder, here are other resources you can reach out to for assistance as well. Depending on your situation, we might refer you to the following:

• Probono Resource Center of Maryland is hosting one more clinic on April 11th: https://probonomd.org/pbrc-event/hpp-tax-sale-clinic-baltimore-city-2024-0411/

• Tax Sale Deferral Program https://dhcd.baltimorecity.gov/hho/tax-sale-prevention

• SOS Fund https://www.thesosfund.com/

• DPW Water Bill Payment Plans: https://baltimore.promise-pay.com/

• Homeowner’s Property Tax Credit: The deadline for that program is October, so it will help you for next year’s taxes and if you are over 70 years old can be retroactive. It is best to apply by April 15th when you do your taxes. https://dat.maryland.gov/realproperty/Pages/Homeowners'-Property-Tax-Credit-Program.aspx
