#1 "Home ownership" ....the truth of the matter.

#2 Nothing unusual about this. Unless you have an 'in' like Hunter Biden, when the property tax arrives, pay it. It happens once a year. Make sure you remember. It's how most counties across the country pay for fire, police, roads, etc that you take for granted. In some jurisdictions, delinquent property taxes are subject to Sheriff Sales. Upon public notice the sheriff appears on the courthouse steps and an auction is conducted on the claim against the title of the land. In other states, failure to pay property taxes over a period of time allows third parties to go to court and demonstrate that the property has been 'abandoned' and upon payment of back taxes, that party receives title to the property.

#3 A class action lawsuit has been filed by Hall and others against several individuals and entities.

The decision in a hearing before a Federal judge was not entirely favorable to the plaintiffs but the case was allowed to go forward against some defendants.

Tawanda owes something north of $22,000 in back taxes.

#4 I think P2K gets to the heart of the matter with the phrase "over a period of time". IOW, the county should not be allowed to take the home just because of one missed payment. The taxes have to be in arrears for a period of time. I could be wrong but I believe that period is five years in San Diego County.

Kinda makes me wonder about the people who are running that county in Michigan.
