Email Reminders

Reminders about real dates, not a newsletter. You pick the topics, and we write when something on your list is coming up.

What You Can Get

  • Property tax and assessments. Tax bill, installment, lottery credit and assessment appeal dates for Dane County. Usually under 8 a year.
  • New homeowner year. One short email a month for your first 12 months in the house, then it stops.
  • Seasonal home care. A few reminders a year timed to Wisconsin weather: radon, ice dams, furnaces, frost dates.
  • Renter credits and rules. Renter's credit and homestead credit filing dates, and rules that change for Wisconsin renters.
  • Rebates and help programs. When energy rebates, repair help and assistance programs open, change or close.
  • New guides and tools. A short note when we publish something new. Twice a year at most.

Most people will get fewer than a dozen emails a year. Nothing goes out on a weekly schedule just to fill an inbox.

How the Emails Work

  • Every date in an email comes from an official source, such as the city, the county, the state Department of Revenue or a state statute, and the email links to it. It's the same research the guides use.
  • The emails don't recommend companies, and they don't carry ads. If paid placements ever appear on the site, they'll be labeled, and they won't be mixed into deadline reminders.
  • We never sell, rent or share your email address. No contractor or partner gets it.
  • Every email has a link to change your topics or unsubscribe in one click.
  • Our email service, Resend, stores your address, the topics you picked, the page you signed up from and your town if you chose one. See Privacy.
