Okaloosa property tax deadline approaches

FORT WALTON BEACH — March 31 is the deadline to pay 2014 real estate property taxes and tangible personal property taxes.

After that, taxes become delinquent and subject to delinquency interest and advertising fees, which are added to the gross amount due.

Residents can pay their taxes at 302 Wilson St. N. #101, Crestview, or send an e-check at www.OkaloosaTax.com.

“Tangible personal property is any tangible item other than real estate used in a business," Tax Collector Ben Anderson said. "This includes furniture, fixtures, machinery, equipment, appliances, tools, signs, leasehold improvements, supplies, leased equipment, and any other assets used by the business.”
