WASHINGTON - The Internal Revenue Service
announced an expedited process that will make it easier for financially
distressed homeowners to avoid having a federal tax lien block refinancing of
mortgages or the sale of a home. |
|
If taxpayers are looking to refinance or sell a home and there is a
federal tax lien filed, there are options. Taxpayers or their representatives,
such as their lenders, may request that the IRS make a tax lien secondary to the
lien by the lending institution that is refinancing or restructuring a loan.
Taxpayers or their representatives may request that the IRS discharge its claim
if the home is being sold for less than the amount of the mortgage lien under
certain circumstances. |

|
Over the last several years, our nation has made enormous progress in expanding access to capital for previously under served borrowers. Despite this progress, however, too many families are suffering today because of a growing incidence of abusive practices in a segment of the mortgage lending market. Predatory mortgage lending practices strip borrowers of home equity and threaten families with foreclosure, destabilizing the very communities that are beginning to enjoy the fruits of our nation’s economic success. |
