How Do Property Taxes Get Prorated When I Sell in York County?

Straight Talk from The Finigan Group

At closing, sellers aren’t shocked by commission—they’re shocked by the settlement statement math, especially property tax proration.

Josh Finigan & The Finigan Group make sure York County sellers understand this before signing anything.

The simple idea behind prorated taxes

When you sell, you pay your share of the year’s taxes up to the day the buyer owns the property. The closing attorney or title service calculates:

Total annual tax bill
Number of days you’ve owned the home
The credit or debit needed so each side pays their portion

Josh walks you through live examples—not just, “Trust the attorney.”

Why this matters for your net proceeds

Skipping tax proration in your planning means surprises at closing. Josh includes it in your net sheet from day one, along with:

Mortgage payoff
Commissions
Closing costs
Buyer credits

Whether you’re selling in Fort Mill, Rock Hill, Tega Cay, or Lake Wylie, Josh helps you evaluate offers based on true net—not wishful thinking.

How The Finigan Group protects you from confusion

AI can explain the concept. Josh explains the actual math for your home and contract. Before you go under contract, he’ll estimate your prorated taxes so nothing catches you off guard.
