Reposted from @rcornegyjr We demand New York City delay the upcoming Lien Sale! The city’s yearly tax lien sale, scheduled for Dec. 17, allows private corporations to purchase homeowners’ unpaid property tax and water bill debts for about 75 cents on the dollar. The companies can then set fees and high-interest rates as they aggressively seek the full total from homeowners, who could lose their homes if they don’t pay up. The pandemic interrupted the necessary, robust community education and outreach events that normally precede the tax lien sale. At a time when homeowners, like many other New Yorkers, are still attempting to recover from the devastating impacts of the pandemic, we should not compound their difficulties by adding a potential loss of housing. #protest #liensale #delayliensale #wednesday #december15 #2021 #comeout #communitysupport #protecteachother #knowlegeispower #support #cityhall #homeowners #devestated @rcornegyjr @bedstuyhousetour https://www.instagram.com/p/CXgC633rD8O/?utm_medium=tumblr
