If your secured property taxes are not defaulted, please disregard this notice.

This is to advise you that the Los Angeles County Treasurer and Tax Collector mailed Statements of Prior Year Taxes with a Special Notice to certain Los Angeles County property owners.  The statement alerts property owners that they have unpaid Annual and/or Supplemental Secured Property Taxes for prior year(s), and their property may become subject to the tax collector’s power to sell.  If residential or agricultural property remains tax defaulted for more than five years, and commercial property or unimproved vacant residential lots remain tax defaulted for more than three years, we will offer the property for sale at a public auction in accordance with State law.  The notice provides important information regarding payment options, the Department’s office location, and office hours. 

As a result of this mailing, property owners may find it difficult to reach us on the telephone.  They may obtain answers to the great majority of their questions in addition to viewing their 2023-24 Annual Secured Property Tax Bill, making online electronic check (eCheck) payments, or obtaining tax payment history for the past three fiscal tax years on the Los Angeles County Property Tax Portal at propertytax.lacounty.gov.  Property owners may also submit their inquiries at ttc.lacounty.gov/public-inquiries or call the toll‑free Property Tax Information Line at 1(888) 807-2111, where automated information is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

We recommend property owners pay their property taxes online.  Electronic check payments are easy, available at no cost, and only require bank routing and checking account information.  A new eCheck video, with closed captions in English, Armenian, Chinese, Korean, or Spanish, is available at ttc.lacounty.gov/pay-your-property-taxes.

Third Party Notification Program

Property owners can designate a third party (e.g., a friend, family member or agency) to receive a copy of past due notices.  While third parties are not responsible for paying the property tax bill, they can remind property owners that their property taxes may be in default, or remind them to take action to prevent them from losing their property in the event of a tax sale.  Senior citizens, those with language limitations, and others who require special assistance are among those who may benefit from this program.  To enroll in this program, please visit our website at ttc.lacounty.gov/third-party-property-tax-notification-program.  

You may contact us at ttc.lacounty.gov/public-inquiries or 1(888) 807-2111, between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time, Monday through Friday, excluding Los Angeles County holidays.  Anyone who is hearing impaired and has TDD equipment may leave a message at 1(213) 974-2196 or use California Relay Services at 1(800) 735-2929.

We recommend that you check your email’s SPAM folder for our emails and that you add the @subscriptions.lacounty.gov domain name to your Safe Senders List to ensure you receive our emails in the future.
