Pay quarterly property tax installment. Massachusetts cities and towns on quarterly billing collect property tax on August 1, November 1, February 1, and May 1 (others bill twice a year, so check the due dates printed on your bill), and an installment paid late accrues 14 percent annual interest from its due date and, if still unpaid after a demand, can lead the town to take the property for the taxes.
