Manufactured and mobile home owners in Larimer County, Colorado, are being told to check their mail after delinquent property tax statements went out this month.
The Larimer County Treasurer’s Office announced that delinquent property tax statements for manufactured and mobile homes were mailed on June 18.
According to North Forty News, delinquent statements for other property types, including residential, commercial, and vacant land, are expected to be mailed in the second week of July.
For owners who live in manufactured or mobile homes, a missed tax bill can become more expensive each month it sits unpaid. The county says current balances can be checked through its property tax tools and paid securely online.
Interest Is Already Adding Up

Larimer County Treasurer and Public Trustee Irene Josey reminded residents that delinquent interest began accruing April 30 for property owners who had not made any payments.
Owners who paid the first half but missed the second-half deadline began accruing interest June 16.
The county says interest accrues at 1% per month or any part of a month, as outlined under Colorado law.
Mortgage Payments Have Been Posted
The Treasurer’s Office said all mortgage company payments have been processed and posted to affected accounts.
Owners who expected a lender or mortgage servicer to handle the bill should still check the account if they receive a delinquent notice.
A posted statement can reveal whether the payment was missed, applied to the wrong account, delayed, or not included in the mortgage arrangement.
There Are Several Ways To Pay
Larimer County says property taxes can be paid online by credit or debit card, with fees, or by e-check with no fee.
Residents can also mail payments to the Larimer County Treasurer, use the 24-hour drop box at 200 W. Oak St. in Fort Collins, or pay in person during weekday office hours.
The county’s property tax search allows owners to look up tax information by account number, parcel number, owner name, or address.
Owners Should Act Before the Balance Grows
A delinquent tax statement does not mean an owner loses a home overnight, but ignoring it can add interest and create a harder problem to fix later.
Manufactured and mobile home owners should confirm the account number, amount due, mailing address, payment history, and whether any lender or servicer was supposed to pay the bill.
Anyone who believes the balance is wrong should contact the Treasurer’s Office directly, keep copies of notices and receipts, and avoid relying on secondhand payment information when a delinquent statement has already arrived.
