How do I avoid a lien being placed on my real estate property?
Answer
Pay your real estate taxes on time. Any real estate property with an unpaid balance of ANY amount will be liened on June 1st and that lien will be filed on the land records in our Town Clerks office. If a property is liened and the taxes are subsequently paid with cash, said lien will be removed immediately. Delinquent real estate taxes can be paid with a personal check but any liens involved will only be released after 10 business days from date of deposit.
