Tax lien and a desolved bank

[Marc Bazemore]

I have a question ,I have a former home owner who was F/C on 8+ years ago, BUT the bank that

F/C has since closed and bank that took over on file says it doesn't own the property, NOW  the

owner who was F/C on is being harassed by code enforcement to maintain the yard ,the lien

is 9k ,the property needs a full rehab, but that's what I do also its next door to a property I already

own ..

 so my question is can I quit claim it over to my company and then buy the lien ,or should I just buy the lien and wait the year knowing no entity is going to redeem ?
