With $22 billion in unpaid property taxes in 2023, you’re not alone.
Selling a house with a lien is possible—it just requires strategic planning.
Here is most all you need to know: understanding liens, navigating legal complexities, and finding the best path to a successful sale.
Your financial challenge can become an opportunity with the right approach.
Key Notes
Multiple lien types exist: voluntary (mortgage) and involuntary (tax, judgment).
Resolve liens before selling through negotiation, payment, or cash buyer options.
Title search reveals liens; buyers typically require liens to be cleared.
Unresolved liens can delay or prevent property sale, risking serious consequences.
Involuntary liens, on the other hand, are imposed without your agreement, often as a result of unpaid debts leading to serious financial implications. Here are some key examples:
Tax Liens
If you neglect to pay your property taxes, the government can place a tax lien on your home. This legal claim ensures that your tax obligation is prioritized.
The National Tax Lien Association reported that in 2023 in the US, a staggering $22 billion in property taxes went unpaid. This highlights how critical it is for homeowners to stay on top of their obligations and proactively manage their finances.
Judgment Liens
If you owe money and a court issues a judgment against you, a judgment lien can be placed on your property. This means you lose some control over your home until the debt is satisfied.
HOA Liens
Failing to pay your homeowners association fees? They have every right to place a lien on your property to recover the unpaid dues.
FINAL THOUGHTS: Are you buying new properties? We recommend having corporate entities under each property address. And do another layer by having a Trust or Family office manage these properties.

What are the new safety threats in 2025?Security experts say the coming year will bring new threats:
THREATS of 2025+
Cybersecurity. “It’s a top concern,” says Shaun Boulter, global head of operations and security for AXA Partners. “Our travelers and clients are increasingly requesting advice on how to protect themselves.” And for good reason. This year cybersecurity was one of the hottest topics — and concerns — as hackers breached businesses and political campaign operations. Boulter says education is the key to averting a disaster: Travelers should take proactive steps like ensuring their digital security is up to date and has strong passwords.
Violence against tourists. “In numerous countries that are seen as very attractive travel destinations – in Europe and elsewhere – there have been numerous protests against tourism,” says Brittany Lewis, a security operations supervisor at Travel Guard. Her team has seen tourists being targeted, “and we’ve even heard directly from customers who have experienced harassment in various locations.” Lewis says the trend is likely to continue.
New infectious diseases. “Health risks are changing with newer strains of COVID-19 emerging,” says Michael Sheridan, who teaches at Temple University’s Japan campus. He’s right; in late 2024, COVID cases started to climb as the flu season started. Sheridan recommends checking with your primary care physician or local pharmacy for a dose of the latest vaccine to help protect you from COVID-19 and other infectious diseases.
