AI Summary

This bill revises the process for a property tax lien holder to foreclose the right to redeem a property tax lien. It allows property owners or their heirs to request a judicial sale or an Internet auction through the county sheriff's office to preserve any equity in the property, except for properties that meet the definition of "abandoned property." The bill also outlines the fees and costs that can be recovered by the lien holder, and provides a process for the distribution of any surplus funds from a sale. The bill applies to any tax lien for which the right of redemption has not been foreclosed as of the effective date of the act.
