Thank you very much.

also the house went to tax sale already but no one bought it because its just a house and really to large to move from where it is. The city did this sale the parish "st landry" "parish taxes are due as well" said they didn't do it because no land is involved. 

yes they own only the house not the land but they are getting tax notice for improvements on my land, I get tax for the lot and my house separate from them.

do I pay all the taxes before I try to sell it?

In early 2000 I Inherited one lot, one house, on this lot is another

house that was inherited by 4 of my half siblings. They own

only that 2nd house.

For the last 15yrs one of the half siblings has lived

in their inherited house and basically destroyed it. Recently she

moved out did a Renunciation of her inheritance portion.

I recently found out they haven't paid the taxes either and the city

deeded it and said I can pay $200 to get it back and parish tax wants $255

I don't know what to do.

The house can be fixed but its in bad shape.

Its about 2000sq ft and would cost tons to move due to location and size.

My Half siblings aren't responding to text about what they want to do with it.

If the city condemns it they/me would be charged to tear it down.

The house I own which is "very" close to this one is in great shape because I took care of it.

I don't know what the siblings house is worth now maybe less than $3000. An appraisor said it would be hard to put a price on it because theres no land attached.

Also this is Louisiana so do I pay their taxes? They would still own it. I paid the taxes for years because they wouldn't pay them. Out of 15yr they paid them maybe 5 times and when I left the state I told the one who was living in the house i wasn't paying them anymore and she needed to pay them. She didn't.

What would you do? Its in whats considered a bad area but its a quiet street if fixed up its 4br and could be rented but not sure how much, my house next door is 2br an maybe can rent for $500 a month. I don't think anyone would buy this place the last home that sold back here was a 2br for $15000 so not much money. A part of me wants to rid myself of the trouble but my family member who left it to us worked hard for this. What would you do?
