I would be interested to get anyone's opinion about the following.
In Massachusetts, examiners have to run the names of buyers for a ten year period prior to a sale looking for IRS Federal Tax Liens or Comm MA Tax Liens recorded in the ROD. The IRS, of course, believes that if a buyer has money for a new home then they should certainly have money to payoff their IRS liens first.
So my question has to do with a 2015 foreclosure deed where Joe Blow was not named as the grantee in the foreclosure deed; but was named as the high bidder at the sale & then named again in the subsequent Assignment of Bid where he transferred whatever interest he had as high bidder to a limited liability company. He is not a manager of the llc; but the managers are clearly family members as they all have the same last name.
I found a Federal Tax Lien under his name from 2011 which is well within the time frame (2005-2015) & reported it as a possible title issue; but I cannot decide whether or not the IRS lien would have any effect as he never held a fee simple interest in the property.
