Tax Theft
If a Maine town has taken your real estate for unpaid taxes, you may be entitled to a money judgment from the town.
The government can’t take your property without paying you a fair price. But Maine towns do it all the time. Say you owe $20,000 in property taxes and the town takes the land and sells it for $100,000.
You should get the $80,000 difference between the money you owed and the money the town got. But Maine towns keep the money. That is TAX THEFT.
Island Justice is here to help fight back.
