i owe property taxes

At the end of the day the person whose name is on the real property is liable for the full amount owed. If you need time to pay the property taxes owed, I would recommend that you contact the appraial agency asap and see about setting up a payment plan. If that first work you can file a chp13 bankruptcy which will spread the amount owed to 60 months plus stop any foreclosure action that may be commenced. The worst thing to do is to wait for someone else to pick up the tab or to wait until the taxing agency does something because the amount owed will continue to increase. If you have any questions or need clarification please feel free to contact me for a free consultation Min Kim(Peter) Attorney
