Best Answer

Technically speaking, your home has nothing to do with your credit. A loan taken out with the home as collateral does. Therefore the foreclosure of such collateral by the county for unpaid property taxes will not affect your credit. It is very rare that any lender would allow the county to take a home they have a loan on (they will usually pay the taxes) so I assume you owned the home without a traditional mortgage. What will affect your credit are things like:

Tax liens

Late payments to a mortgage company

Default on any mortgage debt

Will delinquent property taxes on out of state property effect credit score?

Unpaid property taxes in Florida result in sales of Tax certificates. I have found that the liability is against the property and unpaid taxes are satisfied by a lien against the property. I can't find anywhere the answer as to whether the Taxpayer is not reported to the credit bureau. it seems to me that since counties get the money a different way (investor in the tax certificate) they are not at loss and because the liability is against the property, the owner of the property's credit is not affected? Can someone confirm? Tx CB, Ormond Beach, FL

The amount of the loan forgiven becomes income on which you will have to pay income taxes. If the forgiveness is due to uncollectability, it will have a negative effect on your credit. Unpaid taxes will also negatively affect your credit.Filing bankruptcy or a special IRS form showing you were insolvent at the time will take care of the tax issue.
