Hi albert,

Yes, if you are delinquent on your property taxes, the county can foreclose the property. It would be better if you could contact the IRS and check out if they can help you with a repayment plan.

Thanks

james, he's talking about city taxes not income taxes.

yes, indeed, albert; why not just trot down to city hall and pay those taxes?

Property Tax Liens supercede all property liens. I hope this helps...

Hi william,

As far as I know, the city can place liens on your property for user fees and water bills. When the property would be sold off, the city will be able to recover its dues.

Thanks
