Ever Heard Of This?
I just started working on a shortsale that has a 1st, 2nd and an IRS lien. The homeowner claims that her attorney is working on a release of IRS lien that would allow her to sell the house, which I'm sceptical.
The 2nd was the first to initiate the foreclosure followed by the first. An entry was made in her court file that reads "1-4-05 MOTION TO CONSOLIDATE BY PLTF,WITH CASE # and then 1-11-05 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA'S RESPONSE TO PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO CONSOLIDATE".
It appears that this is likely the IRS attempting to be consolidated in the total debt owed or the 2nd position trying to consolidate with the first or IRS. Best guess is the IRS.
Anyone ever deal with this? Any way to work with the IRS lien?

Yes, people work with IRS liens. Generally you would need a CPA experienced in these matters, and time.
