property insurance.He was

sending me the reciepts for

this but has stopped And has

had a female move in with

You have a number of problems to address. Title and back taxes are two of them A third is evicting the current tenant which you cannot do without the assistance of the court. There is no tax waiver; you must pay any back taxes before or at the time of sale. I expect that thing will go smoother for you with the help of a lawyer.

I handle matters of this type, however the efficiencies in this matter may be influenced by your lawyer's location. (You did not give enough information for me to tell if our Burlington County NJ office can help.) If I can be of further help to you, call or email.
