Default A question about tax lien and how it affects home sale

Does a tax lien expire after 10 years?


This will entirely depend on where the house is located, and what the tax

lien laws are.
Ignore what the realtor says, and talk to your lawyer to ensure that you

get the property
free and clear of any liens.


It is in Miami-Dade County Florida. But is this anything I should worry
about now, or is this normally I think something that is standard
procedure - I mean I would have to pay for a title search as a contingency
about securing a mortgage anyways and if for some reason the title does not
clear, the bank will not approve the loan and I should be free to walk
away - I think. So what I am wondering is, is there anything specific that
I need to worry about at the stage of written up an offer, assuming I write
it up with a contingency of getting a mortgage loan and right to inspect.

Thanks,
