I myself will be homeless after Thanksgiving this year due to the horribly high property taxes where the house is located. The county has foreclosed and will auction the house December 2nd.

“I myself will be homeless after Thanksgiving this year due to the horribly high property taxes where the house is located. The county has foreclosed and will auction the house December 2nd.”

My deepest sympathies.

The carpetbaggers did a lot of that during Reconstruction, too. One of the things that led to the first KKK.

My sympathies. But is there nothing you can do? No way to pay the back taxes? No way to mortgage the property to pay taxes so you can still live there?

Please pardon me, no disrespect intended. But I am alarmed that you will lose your home Dec 2nd, and saddened if you truly have no alternatives. Take care.

Talk to a lawyer. In many cases you can keep your home if you file for bankruptcy. Start here:

Will I Lose My Home If I File for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy?
In many cases you can keep your home in Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

In Chapter 13 your back property taxes would be repaid like your other debt obligations over the course of your mandated repayment program.
