This course provides real estate professionals with an overview of tax liens, tax lien certificates, and the processes that occur when property taxes become delinquent. Participants will learn how tax lien certificates are issued and sold at auction, the roles of local tax authorities, and the redemption process that allows property owners to satisfy the debt. The course also explains how unpaid tax liens may lead to tax deed foreclosure and the potential sale of a property. Through practical examples, attendees will examine investor rights, timelines, and financial considerations, while also learning how tax liens can impact title, closings, and real estate transactions and how professionals can help protect their clients when these issues arise.
