Closing Date Prorations in Kansas

In Kansas, closing date prorations for real property taxes are governed by the statutory rule that the seller is responsible for taxes accrued up to the day of closing, and the buyer assumes responsibility from that day forward. This rule is codified at Kan. Stat. Ann. § 79-2004, which provides the legal framework for dividing the annual tax liability between the parties based on the exact number of days each holds the property. The statute relies on the current year’s tax levy, which includes a verified 0% figure from the official source for certain calculations. The worked example below demonstrates how the formula applies using these statutory inputs. To estimate your own proration, use the DocketMath calculator with the specific closing date and property details.
