§ 8876 Property Sale Proceeds Distribution

• •If the county sells your property, they first pay the state what you owe.
• •If there's money left after paying the state, the county gives it back to you.
• •The county can't keep the extra money for themselves.

Imagine you owe the state $500 for unpaid taxes, and the county sells your old car for $800.

The county sends $500 to the state to cover what you owed. Then, they give you the remaining $300 because that extra money is yours.
