Does being issued a Treasurer's deed wipe out all other liens?

Posted

I understand buying a property via tax sale or OTC tax deeds wipe out majority of liens if there are any against property. If not, is there ever an expiration date regarding liens? Do lien holders discontinue their liens after a certain amount of years due to it no longer being in anyone’s “possession”?

Normally does not wipe out government liens like IRS, demolition, mowing, preservation, etc.

Some place it also does not wipe out water/sewer/utility liens.

IRS I believe has 120 days to act after the foreclosure, I can think the other ones sunset.

Is the gov lean against the property owner or the property itself? Would these be found in public records?
