*Unsecured property tax is an ad-valorem (value based) property tax liability of the person or entity assessed.  The assessment of unsecured property taxes against an individual constitutes a personal lien against the owner of record, not a lien against the property.  The tax is assessed to the owner of record as of the January 1 lien date and is the responsibility of the owner of record regardless of any sale or transfer of the property. *
