Real Estate Taxes
The County Board of Supervisors sets the tax rates for real estate and personal property taxes. This procedure is normally completed when the locality is preparing the total budget for the upcoming fiscal year. The rate is effective January 1.
The current real estate tax rate is $0.72 per $100 of valuation. The Code of Virginia provides for the assessment of real estate taxes based on fair market value as established by the assessor. The Commissioner of the Revenue serves as the assessor for Dinwiddie County. All real property is subject to taxation unless it is specifically exempt.
Real property is assessed as of January 1 each year by the assessor. Real estate taxes are billed semi-annually with due dates of June 5 and December 5. A late payment penalty of ten percent is added on the first business day after the due date. Interest is added on the first of the following month at an annual rate of ten percent. Failure to receive a tax bill will not relieve taxpayers of penalty and interest charges. For changes of ownership, billing addresses or any other changes pertaining to property, please notify the Treasurer's Office.
Bills are forwarded to mortgage companies by request in writing. Should you receive a tax bill on property which is covered through a mortgage escrow account, please forward the bill to your mortgage company immediately.
Tax Relief
Dinwiddie County provides a tax relief program for the elderly and disabled, based on income and net worth. The Commissioner of the Revenue administers this program. Applications must be filed by April 1. Contact the Commissioner of the Revenue for more information.
