Frequently asked questions

Why are tax-delinquent owners motivated?

Unpaid taxes accrue penalties and can ultimately lead to a tax sale. Owners often prefer to sell on their own terms before that happens, which makes them more open to an offer.

Can I combine tax delinquency with other filters?

Yes. Tax delinquency is most powerful stacked with equity, vacancy, or absentee ownership to surface the owners most likely to act.
