Notification wasn't received.

Come on, the owner knows that there is a property tax bill every year, and if they don't receive it on time they should get worried. Everyone knows when their credit card bill should show up and promptly pays even when the post office lost it.

If you have a mortgage, the mortgage company usually rolls property taxes into your mortgage payment. So a homeowner may not receive a separate property tax bill for 30 years.

Not all of them. I’ve been stung for penal payments when I called up to see where the bill had got to. It had passed 30 days since issued and therefore interest was due. I’d be pretty unhappy if the house got taken over that.
