AL Tax Sales: DIY Possession & City Citations
As we already know: Alabama Tax sales allow immediate possession upon demand - but when the demand is not met within 6 months of tax Certificate purchase (with demand), then the tax purchaser must file ejectment. Illegal or DIY possession is a varied topic on BP but no discussion around tax purchasers getting cited by the city inspectors for issues with the property.
any AL tax sale investor open to share their experience with receiving citations in their name where the citation is around structure repair or even internal house issues where DIY possession is inevitable and the owner is requesting redemption.
1. did you diy possess the property to clear the citation
2. If owner redeemed were there issues with getting any money spent to clear the citation
3. Was a lawsuit filed for diy possession.
Feel free to share any scenarios beyond what I listed.
it seems this Citation topic is not really discussed or It may be an oversight on my part.
