Tax Grid not matching the City's Plat w/ a Friday closing...

[John Laney]

Hello,

I am making my 4th Mid South Home buyers purchase; however on this purchase the Tax grid is not matching the city's plat.  The City plat is accurate, but the tax grid cuts off a small slice of my property.  This means that I am paying slightly less taxes than I should be...

By my eye, the realtor's eye, and the Title company attorny's eye this does not seem like a big deal. At the worst the city may re-assess and charge me additional taxes in the future.

However, is there something I am missing??? Could the city come after me for years of back taxes?   Could the property owner sue me for paying my Taxes?  Is there some other way this could bite me?   

Happy to move forward, I just want to understand the risk I am taking .

Thanks, John
