South Carolina § 12-49-1280 - Circumstances not grounds for voiding tax sale.

§ 12-49-1280. Circumstances not grounds for voiding tax sale.

Notwithstanding another provision of this article, the following circumstances are not grounds for voiding a tax sale:

(1) The tax collector complied with Section 12-49-1220(B) but the return from the department did not provide the name and address of the current lienholder, the lienholder's most current collateral list that was provided to the tax collector did not reflect accurately the name and address of the lienholder for the mobile or manufactured home, the county had not been provided information about the lienholder and its address pursuant to the licensing and moving permit procedures provided for in Chapter 17, Title 31, and department records did not reflect information about the lienholder and its address.

(2) The mobile or manufactured home appeared on collateral lists of more than one lienholder and, although the tax collector did not notify all the lienholders, he did notify the lienholders that held liens on the mobile or manufactured home at the time the notice was given, and the notice was sent to the correct addresses of the lienholders holding the liens where the owner's account was being serviced at the time the notice was given.

(3) The lienholder that holds the lien on the mobile or manufactured home at the time the notice was given receives the notice at the correct address of the lienholder where the owner's account is being serviced, regardless of how the tax collector obtained the correct name and address of the lienholder.
