In the United States, each county and municipality relies on property tax revenue to fund essential services like schools, parks, water & sewage facilities, fire departments, and police departments. When property taxes go unpaid for a period of time, the county or municipality issues a Tax Lien Certificate. This certificate outlines the owed amount, including penalties and it is sold at auction to investors to make up for the tax collection deficit.
This lien serves as a legal claim against the property for the unpaid tax amount. A property with a lien cannot be sold or refinanced until taxes are paid and the lien is removed.
If the property owner redeems the property, they must pay interest on the property which can range from 9%-36%.
This is a legal claim placed on the property for which you can buy a Tax Lien Certificate.
In this case, you bid on the actual property itself.
You bid on the property but the original owner retains the right to reclaim it within a specific period.
