That’s how it works. They sell the property to satisfy the liens. She gets the rest.
I’m assuming she just ignored the property taxes even though she was aware of them. It happens quite a lot. When old people don’t want to do something, they sometimes claim “confusion”. My wife works for a CPA. They get “confused” about paying taxes but become experts on avoiding them.
My mother was a devout liberal Democrat and she hated paying taxes but she sure wanted everyone else to pay them.
