Tax Collector - Bradley Beach

Assessed Value of your property
Any questions concerning your assessment should be directed to the Tax Assessor. The Collector is responsible for the billing and collection of taxes only.

Your Annual Property Tax Bill
Your annual property tax bill reflects the total annual taxes on the upper portion of the bill. The attached stubs reflect the second ½ of the current year and the 1st ½ of the upcoming year. Adding the stubs together will not show the annual taxes due. The tax bill is calculated when the tax rate for the year is struck. ( normally in June) The ¼ due August and November will equal the balance due based on the new rate after the payments you made in Feb and May have been deducted. The payments due for Feb and May of the following year will always equal ½ of the prior year taxes as a preliminary tax until the rate is struck.NJ.S.A. 5 April 4, 1964.

An ANCHOR for Homeowners and Renters

New Jersey taxpayers can now apply for the Affordable New Jersey Communities for Homeowners and Renters (ANCHOR) program. The State’s ANCHOR program replaces the Homestead Benefit and helps eligible renters and homeowners to offset local property taxes.

To qualify, the applicant must have either owned, or rented, their residence as of October 1, 2019. If a homeowner or tenant has moved since then, including out of state, the person is still eligible to file if they meet the other requirements.

Homeowners may file online, or by phone. However, certain homeowners may need to file by paper. Tenants may file online, but a paper application is available if preferred. Tenants have no option to file by phone. Eligible homeowners require an ID and PIN to file electronically. Tenants will need to have a valid taxpayer identification number (Social Security number or Individual Tax Identification Number) to file.

ANCHOR recipients can specify on the applications whether they want to receive a check or direct deposit payment. The due date for the application is December 30, 2022. The Division expects to issue payments in May 2023.
