If a lien search exceeds the turn around time that we have given you it might be due to the fact that many cities/counties don't have the proper staff to handle the volume of requests sent. Also, most cities/counties may have increased their turn around times due to the state of the real estate market and the numerous requests received. Also, most cities/counties may take longer on properties that might have violations/liens as they need to gather the most accurate and current information.

Although we prefer to send you a complete file, we can definitely accommodate you and send you what you need at the time of request.

A real estate tax certificate is the affirmation of the frequency and amount of Real estate taxes owed which are and will be paid upon the subject property. In many states there are multiple entities and collection schedules with or without discounts which collect upon the same parcel all of which may lien (become a cloud upon title ) if not paid at the appropriate time and place.

The customary turn time for most of the Tax Certificates is 2-3 business days, all of the certificates require verification and confirmation from all taxing entities to ensure data is not only accurate but timely.

Real estate Tax Certificates may be provided for all of the United States depending upon your servicing requirements. Please note in the rare occasions where the State provides stricter guidelines for document retrieval an authorization may be required in order to complete certification.

The main cause for the State of Pennsylvania requiring more than the customary 3 to 5 business days is due to the nature of the multiple taxing entities, the existence of third party providers enlisted, elected and or appointed officials by the citizens to be the only person/persons to have access to all of the taxation guidelines and protocols whilst doing so predominantly as civil servants as supplemental duties aside from their actual careers, many of which working from home in order to provide taxation details for the certifications.

Skyline is equipped to handle any and all of your tax certification needs! whether large or small, it is our business to accommodate/anticipate and please all of our clients !

It all depends on the association or Management Company that will be providing us with the estoppel/payoff.
