Illinois Surplus for Taxes

Posted by Illinois Lady on May 29, 2005 at 14:30:51:



I bought a property at a sheriff's sale but not I learn that the property has back taxes that I owe as the new owner.The price I paid at the sheriff's sale was higher then the first lien on the property.Can I as the buyer of the forclosed property somehow get to the surplus of funds?Do I have the right to get the surplus fund?
