We Buy Florida Homes with Tax Liens and Back Taxes

Falling behind on property taxes can create a rapidly escalating problem — penalties, interest, and eventually the risk of a tax deed sale where the county sells your property to recover the debt.

In Florida, if property taxes remain unpaid for 2 years, the county can sell a tax certificate on the property. If the certificate is not redeemed within a certain period, the certificate holder can apply for a tax deed — potentially forcing a public sale of your home.

Home Sold Quick can help you resolve this situation quickly with a cash purchase that pays off the outstanding tax debt from the proceeds at closing.

Types of tax situations we work with::

- Back property taxes (1–10+ years) - Tax certificates sold to investors - Tax deed applications in process - IRS federal tax liens on the property - State tax liens - Combined property tax and other liens

How the tax lien payoff works at closing::

When we purchase your property, our title company conducts a full title search to identify all outstanding liens and encumbrances. At closing, these are paid from the sale proceeds in the proper legal order before you receive your net proceeds. This "clears title" and allows for a clean transfer of ownership.

In many cases, even homeowners who thought they had no equity after tax liens are surprised to receive money at closing after everything is resolved.

Stop the tax clock. Get a cash price before it's too late.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I sell if my home has multiple years of back taxes?
Yes. Unpaid property taxes, no matter how many years, are typically paid off at closing from the sale proceeds. We've purchased homes with 5–10+ years of back taxes.
What if there's already a tax certificate on my property?
We can still purchase the property. The tax certificate (and any accumulated interest and penalties) is typically paid off from closing proceeds. Time is important, though — contact us quickly if a tax deed application has been filed.
Do I need to negotiate with the tax authority before selling?
Not necessarily. Our title company handles the tax payoff directly at closing in most cases. You don't need to negotiate anything yourself — though having any existing payment plans in place can sometimes be helpful to disclose.
