Delinquent Property Tax Enforcement 101

The property tax system should help prevent future vacant properties. But too often, these properties languish for years while delinquent property tax enforcement laws and practices trap low-income residents and deteriorating properties in legal limbo. An effective property tax enforcement system protects homeowners and provides an efficient path to transition tax-delinquent vacant properties to new, more responsible owners.

This webinar will explore key elements of equitable, efficient, and effective delinquent property tax enforcement and help you determine if reform is needed in your community.

• Gain a deeper understanding of the connection between property tax enforcement, systemic vacancy, and neighborhood stabilization
• Learn best practices for delinquent property tax enforcement
• Explore case studies from communities that implemented effective property tax reforms in the wake of the Tyler v. Hennepin County Supreme Court decision, which changed how state and local governments can conduct tax foreclosure processes
