Know your deadlines
and payoff amount.

Michigan property tax delinquency can lead to forfeiture and foreclosure under statutory procedures. Do not assume a sale inquiry pauses deadlines. Contact the appropriate county treasurer promptly to verify the status, exact amount due and available options.

Confirm the amount and the deadline

If you are behind on property taxes, gather the latest statements and notices before relying on an older balance. Contact the relevant tax office to confirm the current amount, property status and any deadline. Include that information when requesting a property review. An inquiry with StoneBridge does not postpone a tax process or reserve a closing date.

Consider all known claims against the property

Back taxes may not be the only item to address. Tell the title company or your adviser about mortgages, liens and other notices you know about. Ask for a clear explanation of what would need to happen at closing. The price offered for the house is different from the amount you may receive after debts and transaction costs.

Compare a possible sale with your other options

StoneBridge can review a tax-delinquent property for potential direct purchase. We need to understand the location, condition and timing before deciding whether to move forward. Ask the appropriate tax office or adviser about other options available to you. Do not wait for a property offer to seek help with a stated deadline or a notice you do not understand.

Can I sell a house with back taxes or tax liens?
