Department of Finance, Property Lien Sale
DEADLINE May 15th 2014
From NYC: When you don’t pay your property taxes, water charges, and other charges against your property, they may be sold in a tax lien sale. Each year Finance sells tax liens. If your property has unpaid debt that qualifies for the lien sale, we will sell your lien debt (the amount owed) to an authorized buyer. A lien servicing company, on behalf of the buyer, adds more fees and interest to your debt, so it is much better to take care of your debt before we sell the lien. We send you at least four notices before your lien is sold telling you about the sale and advising you to pay your debts so that your property’s lien does not get sold.The last day to pay your debt or enter into a payment agreement is on May 15, 2014. The Lien Sale will take place on May 16, 2014.
