This bill changes the rules around delinquent property tax liens in Kentucky. It updates how third-party buyers of unpaid tax debts must notify property owners, and it adds a requirement that property owners be informed about how to apply for the homestead exemption, which can reduce the taxable value of a home. Who it may affect: homeowners with delinquent property taxes, older or disabled Kentuckians who may qualify for the homestead exemption, and third-party purchasers of tax liens.
