What Are Tax Liens and How Do they Affect Me?
Friday, December 4th, 2009Hi Again, good to see you back. If you haven't already done so, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
So, what is a tax lien. Well, a tax lien is when real or personal property is attached and used to secure the payment of unpaid taxes. Tax liens may be used for taxes owing on the asset itself or they can be used as a way of “encouraging” taxpayers to pay their delinquent income taxes.
Real estate tax liens are the most usual form of tax lien. A significant difference between real estate and personal property tax liens is that a tax lien placed against a piece of real estate will remain with the property. This means that if you purchase a house which has been attached, you will be held responsible for the tax lien if it is not detected prior to closing.
