Why pay taxes on Abandoned homes
Am looking at the abandon homes in my area that I have been watching.
These homes have been vacant for almost 12-18 months .
If you look at the homes on the county website the taxes are current .
Why pay taxes on a home that is vacant or unkept ?
What is the benefits to the person paying the taxes ?

@Kimani Kironji Greetings,
In my jurisdiction if you do not pay taxes on a property you risk the chance of losing the property to tax foreclosure.
