Back property taxes in Lyon County? Nevada can sell your home for unpaid taxes after 24 months of delinquency. We buy houses with tax liens — pay the taxes at closing, give you the difference in cash, save your credit.
Falling behind on property taxes in Lyon County, Nevada can spiral fast. Nevada counties begin tax sale proceedings after a fixed period of property tax delinquency.

You walk away free of the tax burden with cash in hand.
Mortgage company tax-payment failures occasionally cause property-tax delinquency on properties whose owners assume taxes are paid via escrow. Nevada servicer errors create Lyon County delinquencies; the homeowner is technically responsible for verification. Lyon homeowners discovering escrow failures can usually resolve, but the process takes time.
BuyHousesInCash handles tax-delinquent Lyon properties without requiring the seller to bring money to closing. The math just needs sale proceeds to exceed the tax debt, mortgage payoff, and our offer. When equity is too thin to cover all three, we work with lenders on short sale and with the county on tax-arrear negotiations.
Nevada payment plans for delinquent property taxes exist in some Lyon County jurisdictions. Lyon homeowners can stop tax-sale acceleration by entering plans; default reactivates the timeline. Plans require monthly capability; not all homeowners qualify.
Tax liens in Nevada are mostly senior to mortgage liens, which means a tax sale can extinguish the mortgage entirely. Lyon homeowners who fall behind on property taxes while current on their mortgage occasionally discover their lender paid the taxes and added them to the loan balance — at a punitive rate. Either path destroys equity; selling clears both at closing.
Tax delinquency volume in Lyon County, NV reflects the broader Nevada economic environment. A Lyon metro of 22,817 produces a steady flow of 24-month tax-delinquency-eligible properties. Tax sales clear inventory; BuyHousesInCash acquisitions divert properties before that step.
Nevada can typically begin tax sale proceedings after 24 months of delinquency. The county or municipality issues a tax certificate to investors, and after a redemption period, the property can be sold at auction. BuyHousesInCash can typically close before tax sale in Lyon County as long as you contact us before the auction date is finalized.
No. BuyHousesInCash pays all delinquent property taxes, penalties, and interest from the sale proceeds at closing. The title company in Nevada disburses funds to the county tax collector, clears the lien, and the remaining cash goes to you. You write zero checks. This is one of the biggest reasons homeowners with Lyon County tax delinquency choose us.
Even after a tax certificate is sold to an investor, Nevada provides a redemption period during which you can pay off the certificate plus interest and reclaim your property. BuyHousesInCash can buy your home and redeem the certificate at closing during this window. Don't wait until the redemption period expires — call us as soon as possible.
Yes. Federal IRS tax liens against you personally do attach to Lyon County real estate. The IRS has procedures (Form 14135) to discharge a property from the lien at closing in exchange for paying the lien amount or a portion. BuyHousesInCash works with title companies experienced in IRS lien discharges. Nevada state tax liens follow similar processes.
The math has to work — sale proceeds need to cover the back taxes plus our offer price. If you have $50,000 in back taxes on a $200,000 Lyon County home, we have plenty of room. If back taxes are $180,000 on a $200,000 home, the offer becomes minimal. We'll run the numbers transparently and tell you what you'd net before any commitment.
Common scenario. Both get paid off at closing from sale proceeds. The title company disburses to the lender (mortgage payoff) and the Nevada tax collector (delinquent taxes), then any remaining equity goes to you. We handle multi-creditor closings in Lyon County regularly — it adds about 3-5 days to closing time but isn't a deal-breaker.
Most Nevada counties will postpone or cancel a scheduled tax sale once they receive proof of a pending sale to a buyer who will pay off the delinquent taxes. BuyHousesInCash' title company submits the contract and proof of funds directly to the Lyon County tax office to halt the sale. We've stopped tax auctions with as little as 5 days notice.
Selling to BuyHousesInCash doesn't directly impact credit. The negative items — late mortgage payments, judgments, the tax lien itself — already affect your credit. Selling clears those liens, which over time helps your credit recover. Compare to a tax sale: losing the home plus continued lien on credit report. The voluntary sale is almost always the better credit outcome.

Investor purchasers at Lyon County tax sales typically pay only the back taxes plus fees, leaving any residual property value as profit when the redemption period expires.
