How we collect and check county records →How unpaid tax and foreclosure work in Maryland
Counties sell tax lien certificates at a yearly tax sale. The owner can redeem until the certificate holder gets a court judgment; the holder can usually file to foreclose the right of redemption after six months.
Mortgage foreclosures: court-supervised. Foreclosures are filed in circuit court even under a power of sale, and the court must ratify the sale; owner-occupied homes can ask for mediation.
