Tax liens redemption

[Samy Nasreddine]

Hey everyone,

I need help here. I purchased a bunch of tax liens, all in the county of West Haven in Connecticut through REI Holdings. I want to get my money back on a few of them cause I have a 15 year time frame to act on it and they are due by January 2018.

I'd like to know what would be the best way to go about it. I talked to a rep at REI Holdings. As they told me before I bought them, they can take care of everything but they never mentioned to me that I would need to send 3000$ as a retainer for the lawyer to start the process of foreclosure for each and every one of the liens I own.

Not sure if I absolutely have to use their lawyer but if not, what should I do. The lady at REI couldn't tell me, out of 3000$, how much are not refundable. The liens are low so I don't want to spend more money than what's owed to me.

Did anyone of you go through the process and can guide me?

Thank you

@John Knight thanks John. I tried to do a search yesterday to find all the liens on the property. Looks like I didn't have all of them cause mine wasn't showing. All there was, were his taxes due for this year. Anyway, I'll keep digging and also try to find an experienced lawyer in tax liens.
