Jacksonville, FL asked in Real Estate Law for Ohio

Q: How can we purchase property for the back taxes and liens in Campbell Ohio?

Hello! My husband and I are relocating fro Jacksonville FL to Campbell OH. We are interested in purchasing some property located in Campbell That has been vacant for sometime. It's nextdoor to my sister and an ideal home for us. There is back taxes and other assessments on both of these properties. We would like to obtain ownership by bringing the taxes up to date and clearing out the other assessments. I hope you can help us and look forward to hearing from you soon as time is of the essence. We need to have the property secured by March 15, 2020.

A: The county normally must go through a foreclosure process for delinquent taxes, which takes many months. Use the Find a Lawyer tab to retain a local real estate attorney to review the situation and advise you. But it is unlikely you can complete it by March 15.
