What is Real Property Tax Statement Insert Tax Year 2025 – Denver, CO?
The Real Property Tax Statement Insert Tax Year 2025 is the informational insert from the City and County of Denver Treasurer that accompanies the property tax statement for 2025 property taxes due in 2026 and explains how the tax is calculated, paid and reduced.
The insert opens with a letter to Denver property owners. It says the statement, downloaded at Denvergov.org/Property, is the only document needed to pay, and that no additional notices or statements will be sent this year. It then explains the formula Property Tax Due = Assessed Value x Mill Levy, defines a mill levy and assessed value, and says where the Assessor's actual value appears on the statement: the far right-hand column, about halfway down the page.
The back page answers frequently asked questions: where property tax money goes (the city and Denver Public Schools, with special districts), what the City Bond Fund line means, why the valuation protest period has expired, and which relief programs exist. Those include the city's property tax relief program, the State of Colorado exemptions and the Property Tax Deferral Program.
The insert is not a tax bill and not a payment coupon. The Treasury Division lists it beside a separate Fees Insert Tax Year 2025, which is a different document.

Common mistakes to avoid
- Waiting for a mailed property tax statement. The insert says the statement is downloaded at Denvergov.org/Property and that no additional notices or statements will be sent this year.
- Paying without checking whether your mortgage company or another institution already escrows your property taxes and is scheduled to pay them.
- Trying to protest your 2025 valuation now. The insert says the protest period has expired and the notice is only for billing and collecting.
- Mailing a payment without the coupon for the deadline you are paying, or without cutting a clean line above the "detach here" message.
- Missing a relief deadline: July 15 for the state senior exemption, March 15 for the Qualified Senior Primary Residential Classification, July 1 for disabled veteran exemptions.
- Applying for the Property Tax Deferral Program outside the January 1 to April 1 window.
- Confusing the Assessor's actual value with the assessed value. The assessed value is lower, because the state-mandated assessment rate reduces the actual value.
- Expecting a business personal property statement online. The Treasury Division says those statements are printed and mailed.
Frequently asked questions
What is the Denver Real Property Tax Statement Insert?
It is an informational insert from the City and County of Denver Treasurer that accompanies the 2025 property tax statement, for taxes due in 2026. It explains the tax formula, how to pay, the closed protest period and relief programs. It is not a bill and has nothing to fill in.
How is Denver property tax calculated?
Property Tax Due equals Assessed Value times Mill Levy. A mill levy is a tax rate applied to assessed value; one mill is one-thousandth of a dollar. The assessed value is the actual value reduced by the state-mandated assessment rate, so it is lower than the actual value.
When are Denver property taxes due?
Per the Treasury Division, the first half is due the last day of February and the second half June 15 if you pay in two installments. Payment in full is due April 30. A date that falls on a weekend or holiday moves to the next business day.
Can I still protest my 2025 Denver property valuation?
No. The insert says owners had two chances after the April 2025 Notice of Valuation, through the Assessor's Office and the Denver County Board of Equalization, and the protest period has expired. For valuation questions, call the Assessor's Office at (720) 913-1311.
How do I pay my Denver property taxes?
Pay online at denvergov.org/propertytaxes with VISA, MasterCard, Discover or e-check, or mail a printed copy of your statement with the coupon for your deadline. A service fee applies to card payments; e-check avoids it. Mailed payments are honored by postmark date.
Do I have to pay if my mortgage company pays my taxes?
Check first. The insert asks you to verify whether your taxes are escrowed with a mortgage company or other financial institution and scheduled to be paid by them before you make a payment yourself.
What help is available for paying Denver property taxes?
Families, seniors and people with disabilities may qualify for the city's relief program (denvergov.org/propertytaxrelief, 720-944-4TAX (4829)). Colorado also offers exemptions for qualifying seniors and disabled veterans, and a deferral program for seniors and active military personnel.
Can I fill out the property tax insert on FillingPDF?
The insert has no lines to complete. FillingPDF lets you open the PDF online and download or print it, but it is an independent service: it does not pay, file or submit anything for the City and County of Denver Treasurer.
