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?
