Typically, if the back taxes are paid by anyone before the tax sale, ownership of the property does not change. If there was a written agreement between the owners and the person who paid the taxes that stated that the owners agreed to deed the property to the tax-payer after the tax-payer paid the taxes, then the agreement could be enforced as a legally binding contract and the owners could be forced to deed the property to the tax-payer. However, the owners remain the owners until they deed the property to someone else or until the property is sold at a tax sale or other type of foreclosure.

Can a lien be used as a forced sale of property?

In almost every US state it is possible for a judgment creditor to request a forced sale of property to which a lien has been attached. A definite answer is not possible as there are many factors that could prevent a forced sale of a primary residence. For example, Texas is one state where statutory law forbids the sale of a homestead. Other states do not allow such a sale if it is marital property held as Tenancy By The Entirety and only one spouse is the debtor, and so on and so on.

If parents sold an undivided interest in property to a son for a fair market value and the parents decide to sell can the son be forced to sell?

If you have an undivided interest in property you cannot be forced to sell by the co-owners. Only a court can force a sale. Your parents would need to petition the court to partition the property. The court would divide the property if possible. If not possible then the property would be sold and the proceeds, after legal costs, would be divided amongst the co-tenants. A partition proceeding can be costly. However, your parents could sell their interest in the property to a third party who would then become your co-tenant in common.
