Crazy. So if the property isn’t worth the outstanding taxes the city can never foreclose?
I mean, there should be some rules, as there should be rules governing every government function, but this is silly.
Also, the idea that buyers can’t have access to the property is ridiculous. I’m not sure exactly how it should work with a potentially hazardous property, but some access is required to evaluate a property properly. That’s just as true for commercial developers as for residential homebuyers. Although I suppose potential buyers could just break in the same as anybody else who is curious about the property.
