What's Inside

All 5 steps

  1. Find out whether your city has a vacant home tax at all — many don't
  2. Mark the declaration deadline and file every year, even if you live there
  3. Never assume occupancy is enough — a missed declaration is deemed vacant
  4. Don't confuse the municipal tax with the federal Underused Housing Tax
