Behind on property taxes? Selling can clear them at closing.
Kansas property taxes are billed in two halves, and once they go unpaid, interest and fees start adding up. Left long enough, the county can take the property to a tax foreclosure sale, and owners can lose the house and much of its equity.
When I buy a house with back taxes, the title company pays them from the sale at closing. You don't need to come up with the money first.

Questions about this
Can I sell a house that's headed to a tax sale?
Often, yes, as long as the sale hasn't happened yet. The sooner you call, the more options you have.
Do I need to pay the taxes before I sell?
No. They're paid from the proceeds at closing, before you receive your share.
What if there are other liens too?
Mortgages, judgments and liens are paid from the sale as well. If the total is more than the house is worth, I'll tell you.
