All this talk of real-estate has me wondering about something.
My wife, some years ago, jointly bought property with a long-ago ex boyfriend who, some years back, headed off to Las Vegas, ne'er to be seen again. (They also bought a house, but the sold that - the land was next to the house's lot)
So she is getting tax bills (cheap - like $13.00 or something) for the property and the tax is past due (she was just gonna let it go to the county).
But I'm wondering - cause it IS only $13 in taxes or so, and land is land...
How hard would it be for her to sell the land as "half owner"? I suppose a good faith effort to find s**thead (the ex) would be required?
No idea even where to start, but it seems like a waste to let land go when we're talking Baltimore suburbs here (remote but still)
