Best Answer

Absolutely not. That person would be a volunteer, having paid the taxes on property they don't own. Paying the property taxes does not bestow legal title. You would need to obtain title from the heirs or from the town after the town takes possession of the property by tax title foreclosure.

If you paid the delinquent property taxes on another person's property can you file a lien against it to recover your expenditure when the property is sold?

YES BUT YOU SHOULD DO IT RIGHT AFTER YOU PAY THE TAXES. * No. The party who paid the delinquent taxes has no legal rights to the property. You cannot automatically place a lien against property other than that of a Mechanic's Lien. The paying of the taxes would be considered a loan, the only option for recovery of the monies if the property owner did not voluntarily repay the amount would be to sue the party in the appropriate state court.

Paying the taxes alone, no. If others are named on the deed, you'll need to work with them, period. All named individuals own the property equally. The court doesn't care who pays the taxes as long as they're being paid. Stop paying the taxes, and all of you risk losing the property.

What is the number of days for a right of redemption for a Florida single family home purchase?

There is no "right of redemption" for the purchase of a home. Right of redemption applies to a tax taking of your land by the town for non-payment of real estate taxes. If you don't pay your property taxes the town has the legal right to take your property. You can get your property back, i.e., redeem it, by paying the back taxes and interest. That is what is meant by the "right of redemption".

Can you give your property away owing taxes?

Yes, you can give your property away owning taxes, unless there is a lien or other legal document held by the IRS or taxing authority that prohibits you from doing so. Examples of such restrictions against giving the property away might be where your personal income taxes are delinquent or your property taxes are delinquent and the property is collateral guaranteeing payment of the debt.If the property is free of delinquencies, the person accepting the property is doing so subject to the outlying property taxes. For example, if you gave real estate to a person they probably need to pay the real estate taxes before they could purchase title insurance or mortgage the property.
