Delinquent Taxes

Brentwood Borough utilizes Jordan Tax Service for the collection of delinquent real estate taxes. A tax becomes delinquent when it remains unpaid after the applicable penalty period has expired.

Property owners with delinquent tax balances may be subject to additional interest, penalties, collection costs, lien filing fees, legal fees, and other costs permitted by law. Failure to pay delinquent taxes may result in the filing of a municipal lien against the property and additional collection actions.

Property owners who have received a delinquent tax notice or who believe they may have an outstanding balance are encouraged to contact Jordan Tax Service as soon as possible to discuss their account and available payment options.

Questions regarding delinquent tax balances, payment arrangements, municipal liens, tax certifications, or collection notices should be directed to:
