Offer & compromise on IRS lien belonging to deceased owner
Hi everyone. Just wondering if anyone has had any luck or experience with a situation where there's an IRS lien against a deceased owner.
There is enough equity in the home to pay it off but wondering if any accountants can chime in here on what the chances would be of getting such a lien discounted in light of the owner being deceased. Thanks in advance.

IRS has no incentive to release the lien for less if the equity is there. This is likely a waste of your time.
