What happens to tenants in a commercial strip center when the owner of the property owes back taxes of $2MM and can't pay them?

I got an answer from cash bar. It really depends on if the property goes into BK

The County will foreclose on the property.

That's not exactly what I said. :boxing_smiley:

The first thing I said was it depends on the state.

The second thing I said was probably a new landlord.

The third thing I said was that you have to be 2 yrs behind in Fla to lose the property.

The LAST thing I said was if the owner filed BK(depending on corp/personal) FIRST, all contracts should be null and the tenants would be able to bail or re-negotiate.

We are kind of going through this kind of situation on a retail center we own in OHIO. Long story, but this was a deal we made in which another developer was to build, rent and manage a center for us as a swap for land we owned. The guy did not make all leases tripple net as was in contract and did not pay taxes for the last 1.5 or 2 years. We had no freekin' clue until the County sent us a warning that they would begin forclosure proceedings for the $38,000 in unpaid taxes. The deal was that he paid us a fixed amount each month for five years and then we took everything over. He failed to provide us with a proper accounting, etc., etc. Needless to say, we have filed suit for this and 8 other issues. The guy is a real tool! At least the suit is a near slam dunk.
