A tax certificate is a statement of outstanding property taxes, which is usually requested by lawyers at the closing of a real estate transaction. The vendors' or purchasers' lawyer can apply for a Tax Certificate from the Township Office with a fee, listed in the User Fee schedule. Once we have received the funds required for a Tax Certificate, we will process it and fax or mail the certificate to you.
