tax lein homes and property
And the recording issue - Posted by John Merchant

I’ve not tried it and don’t remember seeing it in any state’s statutes (you don’t say what state’s it in) but I doubt any county recorder’s office would record it without proof of their RE taxes being current.
The county recorder could tell you about that.
Also, as Bill H has said here, you wouldn’t get title ins. or refi without paying them.

Simplistic answer is YES. You can purchase a property with any liens against it that you wish.
It is NOT ADVISABLE in most cases. Somebody has to pay the liens. When you buy subject to the existing liens and encumberances…that somebody…is YOU.
So, yes you can buy subject to the taxes NOT being paid. You probably will be unable to get title insurance or refinance. Lenders and title companies do not like taxes being unpaid.
Good LUck,

In Texas, if you buy property at a tax foreclosure sale, the proceeds of your purchase price will be used to pay the taxes in arrears. If you buy property from an individual, the taxes in arrears will be on Schedule C of your Title Committment, and these are usually charged against the seller’s proceeds at closing. Taxes for the current year will be billed at the end of the year, and at closing, the seller will pay the prorated portion which the seller owes from January 1 to the closing date.
The best answer to this will be from a real estate attorney or escrow agent. I am not an attorney.
