Asset Management and Tax Lien Division

The Controller's office also holds the County's official record of tax liens. The Tax Lien Division works closely with the Treasurer's Office to determine which properties are delinquent, and ensures the lien is placed on the Land File, the County's official property database. The Tax Lien Unit is also responsible for the exoneration of liens in conjunction with the Offices of the Department of Court Records - Civil/Family Division, Treasurer and Sheriff. This division plays an integral role in the sale of outstanding liens to private collection firms.
