Property taxes

[bcglobal]

I'm planning on filing a Chap 13 in July. My question is should I pay my April property taxes or just put that in the chap 13?

Is there any drawbacks to not paying besides the penalty? I'm California if that makes any difference.

Thx!

We included ours in our BK. They were due Feb. 15th - or with a 1% late fee by February 28th. It was a nice $1900 that we could hold on to and not have to shell out just prior to filing.

One crazy thing is that our property taxes get 18% interest in the plan! This doesn't really change anything for us, but found it interesting that they get such a high interest rate.

I am in Michigan, so your mileage may vary...
