I R S TAX LIEN
I HAVE A POTENTIAL DEAL BUT HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM. I CAN PICK UP A 188K PROPERTY WITH A 88K BALANCE (DIVORCE)PROBLEM...THERE IS A 500K TAX LIEN ATTACHED TO IT.ANYONE WITH A SUGGESTION ON HOW TO GO ABOUT RESOLVING THIS ,I WOULD APPRECIATE SOME FEEDBACK....
Call the IRS service office and offer a settlement payment. It will take some serious digging to find a person who is an actual decision maker. You may also want to call a number of tax accountants & attorneys in your area for suggestions on who to talk to at the IRS. They may know somebody.
Also, if the person who the lien was against is not the person holding / selling the property and the divorce is final, it is sometimes possible to convince the IRS to release the lien because the seller could be proven not to be liable for the unpaid tax. (Depends on a lot of factors)
good luck!
