Harris County Delinquent Taxes.

So I found a house that clearly is in bad shape . After looking it up on the tax assessor website I found out its 56k past due in Taxes from 1996.    My question is how do 20 years go by and the house never gets auctioned off?  

Thanks

Anthony

@James Richter, yes, that would be a good list to go off of. Depending on how much you have for marketing, you can narrow does the list if needed based on how much they are behind or how many years. Sending the letters around the Fall season, around the time they get their tax notifications, is good too.
