Broker Comment: I PURCHASED A CONDOMINIUM AT THE ADDRESS [ADDRESS] ON 8/22/2014. PARCEL NUMBER: [PARCEL NUMBER]. THE CLOSING DOCUMENTS LISTED 'PROPERTY TAXES' TO BE SPLIT BETWEEN THE SELLER ([THIRD PARTY]) AND THE BUYER (MYSELF) FOR THE MONTH OF AUGUST ONLY. I MISUNDERSTOOD THE CONTRACT AND WAS UNDER THE ASSUMPTION THAT THE ENTIRE PROPERTY TAX AMOUNT FOR 2014 WAS INCLUDED IN CLOSING COSTS. I HAVE CONTINUED TO MAKE MORTGAGE PAYMENTS REGULARLY SINCE CLOSING. -I RECEIVED NOTICE FROM MY LENDER (BRYANT BANK) ON MAY 11, 2015 THAT MY PROPERTY TAXES WERE IN DELINQUENT STANDING. I WENT TO THE COURTHOUSE IMMEDIATELY THAT DAY TO PAY THE AMOUNT DUE INCLUDING PENALTIES ($356.20) FOR 2014. I WROTE A PERSONAL CHECK THAT WAS ACCEPTED BY THE ATTENDANT IN THE TAX COLLECTION OFFICE AT THE JEFFERSON COUNTY COURTHOUSE. I VERIFIED THAT I HAD GONE TO MAKE PAYMENT WITH MY LENDER.-I WAS LATER NOTIFIED (MAY 19TH) BY MAIL THAT JEFFERSON COUNTY WAS NO LONGER ACCEPTING PERSONAL CHECKS FOR 2014 PROPERTY TAXES ON THE DATE THAT I HAD WRITTEN THE CHECK. I WAS NOT INFORMED OF THIS WHEN I PRESENTED THE CHECK AT THE COURTHOUSE. THE CHECK WAS MAILED BACK WITH THIS NOTICE.-I WENT TO THE COURTHOUSE WITH CASH TO MAKE PAYMENT TO SATISFY ANY OUTSTANDING BALANCE. I WAS INFORMED THAT DAY (5/19) THAT NO PAYMENTS WERE BEING ACCEPTED AND THAT EACH PROPERTY WITH OUTSTANDING TAXES WOULD BE AUCTIONED TO INDIVIDUALS PREVIOUSLY REGISTERED WITH THE STATE OF ALABAMA.- THE OUTSTANDING BALANCE WITH INTEREST OWED ON MY PROPERTY IS $432.28. I CONFIRMED THAT NO ONE PURCHASED THE LIEN AGAINST MY PROPERTY SO IT WILL BE HELD BY THE STATE OF ALABAMA UNTIL SATISFIED. THE OUTSTANDING TAX LIENS CANNOT BE PAID UNTIL FILED WITH THE STATE (EXPECTED TO BE JUNE 22ND). -I DID NOT RECEIVE ANY MAIL CONCERNING THE SITUATION DUE TO THE SELLERS NAME BEING LISTED ON EACH MAIL ITEM AND AS A RESULT, THE MAIL WAS FORWARDED TO HIS NEW MAILING ADDRESS.-I HAVE ADDRESSED THE SITUATION WITH MY LENDER AND THEY WILL NOT BE FILING ANY SORT OF DELINQUENCY OR NEGATIVE JUDGMENT. -I CONFIRMED WITH THE STATE THAT THERE SHOULD BE NO FURTHER MAIL DISPERSED WITH THE PREVIOUS PROPERTY OWNERS NAME TO ELIMINATE ANY FUTURE MISCOMMUNICATION.-I WILL BE SATISFYING THE OUTSTANDING LIEN AT THE EARLIEST DATE PAYMENT IS ACCEPTED BY THE STATE (EXPECTED JUNE 22). I HAVE CONTINUED TO CALL JEFFERSON COUNTY TAX COLLECTOR MULTIPLE TIMES A WEEK TO CHECK TO SEE IF AN EXACT DATE HAS BEEN DETERMINED BY THE STATE DECLARING WHEN TAX LIENS MAY BE PAID OFF.
