Do I have to pay property tax on a private rental apartment?


Questioner

As of December 1st I can move into an apartment that I rent from a private individual. Now my question is, am I obliged to pay a portion of the OZB tax?

Lawyer

Good afternoon, Congratulations on your new home! In principle, a tenant of a home does not pay OZB, because the OZB in the form of owner's tax is for the account of the landlord. Tenants no longer have to pay this tax since 2006. The landlord may pass on all other taxes to the tenant. Think of waste disposal tax, sewage tax, etc. If you would like to discuss your file further, please feel free to contact us without obligation.
