Property Tax Paid by Mortgagee
Many property owners choose to have their property taxes paid by their Mortgage Company or Financial Institution (i.e. the Mortgagee).
If a Mortgage Company or Financial Institution is remitting your taxes, you will still receive a property tax notice from the Town of View Royal. The Town mails to each Mortgagee a listing of all known properties on behalf of which this Mortgagee remits property taxes.
It is between you and your Mortgagee to ensure that property taxes are paid to the Town in full, including the portion of your property taxes that may be covered if you are eligible for the Home Owner Grant.
Note: The Mortgagee must advise the Town of View Royal that they require annual property tax information on your property. As a precaution, we recommend that if you have a new mortgage that you take a copy of your property tax notice to your Mortgage holder to ensure that they are remitting property taxes on your behalf.
Home Owner Grants
If you are eligible for a Home Owner Grant you must advise your Mortgagee and identify which grant you qualify for (the regular or additional grant). You must claim this grant each year that you are eligible.
