QUESTION
Can my wages be garnished for past due property taxes?
Asked on Mar 05th, 2013 on Taxation - Washington
More details to this question:
I had a rental property that was vandalized and is not available for rent so I stopped paying the taxes. Now, the municipality is suing me instead of taking the property. Can they garnish my wages if they win the civil judgment?

Assuming they get a civil judgment, yes, they would have all the rights of the judgment creditor including garnishment of your wages.

If they go after you personally and not just the property, yes they can execute the judgment against you and that could possibly be a wage attachment.
