Delinquent Property Taxes
Delinquent Property Taxes
Unpaid Florida property taxes lead to tax certificates and, eventually, a tax deed sale. Understanding where you are in that process is the first step.
What this usually means
- Unpaid taxes are sold as certificates to investors, with interest accruing.
- After a statutory period, a certificate holder can apply for a tax deed sale.
- You can usually redeem by paying taxes, interest and costs before the sale.
- Selling before a tax deed sale can preserve your equity.
Your options
Redeem the certificate
Pay what is owed and stop the process, if that is feasible for you.
Sell before the deed sale
Taxes can be settled from proceeds at closing.
