Back taxes on inherited land
Question Details:
My brother died and left his land to his children.Now the children are not paying the taxes on the land.If the taxes are not payed by 11/02/2009 it will be sold by the county for unpaid taxes.My questions is, if I pay the taxes on the property, what legal rights do I have to the property. Is there any point where I would get the deed to it by paying the taxes on the property?

None--other than possibly a claim for reimbursement of the taxes paid. You will not get a deed by virtue of your paying the taxes.
