If real estate taxes are not paid by the due date, the property owners will be charged interest at the rate of 14% computed from the bill due date. If a balance remains on the second half tax bill, a demand notice is sent and a demand fee ischarged against the account. If the account remains delinquent, a tax lien is placed on the property and is recorded with the County Register of Deeds. Some towns will list the owner's name, address, and amount of outstanding taxes in the local newspaper and and charge an advertising fee against the account.

A tax lien is the first step in the foreclosure process.

All taxes, costs and interest must be paid to prevent foreclosure.

Are liens valid after a tax foreclosure sale?

Tax liens, especially real estate tax liens, take priority. Other liens, such as judgment liens, take a back seat. A property tax taking is often for much less than the property value, and if the debtor does not redeem the property by paying the tax due, the tax sale buyer gets a huge bonus. The other liens, including mortgages, go away, but the debtor still owes the money.

Tax Lien priority in foreclosure?

Well it depends on what type of Tax lien we are talking about. But first rule of thumb, liens have priority based on Irs Tax liens are prioritized like most other liens, by date of recordation. Actually IRS liens can fall further down the list based on when perfected.....but all in all, IRS tax liens do not supercede other legal liens State Tax Liens can superced tax liens depending upon State laws but stilll are subordinate to all other previously filed legal liens. Property Tax liens take priority over all liens, regardless or recordation, perfection, etc. Think of it this way, when you buy property, property taxes are an inherent obligation that attaches as soon as the ink on the deed is dry. There's no attorney on earth that can record a mortgage lien that fast!
