Purchasing Tax Liens in Louisiana
The purchase of a Louisiana tax lien is the easiest step of tax lien ownership. Taking a tax lien from initial purchase to a return on investment can often be a complex, time consuming, and expensive process. The laws and courts of Louisiana favor the property owner and this often means the tax lien holder has a number of steps that must be followed carefully to see a lien process through. Often, you as the lienholder are not the only tax lien “waiting” in line. This can mean that unless you are familiar with the notice process, you may not be in possession of a lien that is ready for the next steps towards resolution (getting the return on your investment).
Louisiana property tax liens are unique. Many other state auctions are a process of bidding for 100% property ownership by “bidding up” the taxes. Louisiana does a “reverse auction” on the percent of the property that can be taken after the redemption period has expired. This means that your claim could be a very weak position and that only through negotiations with the property owner directly will some resolution be made.
Buyers of tax liens seek an opportunity to purchase liens where the redemption period is short or has passed. This is an opportunity for the current lien holder to cashout and move their money into new investment opportunities.
Frequently Asked Questions
Each parish or city in the state of Louisiana annually places the properties that are behind on their property taxes into tax lien auctions. The reason is simple. Our government needs to pay its bills. Without the tax auction, each year millions of vital tax dollars would go unpaid. The tax lien system motivates buyers for the revenue that comes over time. Property owners are motivated to not lose their property. Tax lien market aims to match lien buyers with those who want to sell their liens.
A property tax lien is a legal claim against the property of an individual or business that fails to pay taxes owed to the government. By purchasing the tax lien at a tax lien auction you are purchasing the tax debt owed to the city or parish. This gives the buyer certain rights to gain interest and penalties on the amount of the original auction. As a tax lien holder you also have the obligation to maintain the property taxes left unpaid and ongoing. Interest and penalties are accrued on those paid taxes as well.
