back taxes

[Chris Kelly]

Hello BP members, 

I recently acquired by foreclosure property that has about 5 years of back taxes. I know I will be paying those taxes at closing. I am fine paying the principle but I was wondering if anyone has ever gone to the city hall and negotiated the years of accumulated interested on the taxes. 

Thank you very much for your help. I am interested to see what people have done in similar situations.
