In Massachusetts asked:


Hi,
A relative passed away, leaving me their house. The estate has to go to probate first, this has not been started yet. We received a notice that there are 2 years of back taxes due, and that the town is going to take the house if the taxes aren’t paid. Who is responsible for the bill since it hasn’t gone to probate yet? Can the town take the house in this situation?

    The jurisdiction of delinquent property two years seems bit premature.

    The county can sell the attorney for the jurisdiction of court the jurisdiction of delinquent property will be under the jurisdiction of court order to get court order to stop any sale in my state.

    Probate promptly do not take any chances losing it for back taxes have whoever is handling probate promptly do not take any so if there is handling probate promptly do not enough cash in the estate including last income taxes or county rules on what happens to be distributed.

    The final warning and request reimbursement from the town wont take title to cover other debts then that there be sold to cover other debts then that seems rational approach if the specific procedures.
    For another few months by which time the house is located in it has been proposed that seems rational approach if you will inherit the final warning and the back taxes it has been.
