The co-signer is responsible until the loan is discharged. When the borrower transfers the property to the lender there may still be sums due on the loan. The borrower and co-signer are equally responsible for paying the debt.

If you purchase a property that has an IRS lien against it does the purchaser acquire the lien with the property and become responsible to pay it or what happens to the lien when a house is foreclosed?

State laws may vary, and some liens could PREVENT you from recording a sale, if you try to record a deed without paying off (releasing) the liens. I'm certainly no expert on liens, but there may be nothing preventing a purchaser from buying a property subject to liens (claims) accrued by the previous owners. You could buy property with a mortgage on it, tax liens on it, mechanic's liens, municipal liens, etc., as long as you (the buyer) understand that ANY of these liens could result in claims being made against you, and you should get some guarantee (bond, security, payment) from the seller in exchange for accepting this sort of risk.

You bought property you didn't know had liens on it how do you make them pay you?

You have to track down the owners of the liens and pay them. Your local tax office or the tax office in which the property is located should be able to assist you in the location of the holders of the lien. If you bought the property with existing liens attached to it, you bought the liens too and are now responsible for them legally. Your only recourse would be to sue the previous owners for restitiuion of the cost of paying off the liens.
