COLLECT YOUR DELINQUENT REAL ESTATE TAXES
Among the toughest challenges that municipalities and their administrations face today is meeting growing financial needs without burdening their citizens with higher taxes or fees. In Virginia, property taxes – and primarily real estate taxes – are the foundation of municipal finance. That’s where the attorneys and staff of Sands Anderson Marks & Miller’s Delinquent Real Estate Tax Collection Team can help. We bring in the tax money you’ve already assessed and asked for and have over 25 years of successful experience in representing counties, cities and towns across the Commonwealth of Virginia in the collection of delinquent real estate taxes.
The best part for local Treasurers is that our services are performed at virtually no cost to the taxing authority. All costs of collection are paid by the delinquent taxpayer, or are recovered upon sale of the parcel.
We like to say that “it pays to hire an expert.” Over our decades of work, we have developed, refined and honed a process that can accelerate the notification and processing of delinquent taxpayers, and apply the appropriate leverage to motivate satisfaction of the tax obligation. As a result of the specialized system we have developed over the years, approximately seventy five percent (75%) of all delinquent tax parcels are redeemed prior to sale.
We have performed in this capacity for municipalities including the City of Radford, the Towns of Narrows and Wytheville, and the Counties of Appomattox, Bland, Caroline, Carroll, Craig, Culpeper, Dinwiddie, Floyd, Halifax, King George, Pittsylvania, Stafford, and Wythe. Our attorneys have been involved in the sale of hundreds of delinquent tax parcels, and have collected over $12 million for our local government clients.
Our knowledge and understanding of the law, commitment to excellence and team work result in prompt collection of real estate taxes for our clients. Contact us by clicking on the navigation bar at the top.
