<prompt> Human: My dad went to prison in 2014 and he had roommates so I had to get power of attorney and put my name on the deed to evict the ones who refused to leave and turn off utilities. He got out and went back 2 weeks later so 2014,15,16 is not paid. I have a house and life of my own so I have not paid the taxes because its not responsibility and he planned on paying them when he gets out. I called the tax assessors office for the county he lives in and they said there has not been a suit filed yet and Ill get a letter and it could take another year or even longer. I was looking for advice because Im trying to figure out of it should sell it or let it sit until he gets out at the end of the year! I havent paid it because its a condemned, crappy house and I wont do his job for him. Just looking for some like experiences to help me decide what to do!  <response>: You dont want to pay the taxes, dont want to sell the house, dont want to make your Dad mad and dont want this to effect you. One or more of these things is going to have to give if you want a solution.
