The ability to infuse immediate revenue into a spending budget can serve as a useful tool to help address many of the shared challenges facing Pennsylvania taxing entities, especially Pennsylvania school districts. Using the MRS program to sell tax liens does that and more: • Add new revenue to your  budget by accessing your accounts receivable. • Past due taxes that may have been on the rolls for years are resolved. • Assures receipt of expected cash flow, improving future planning / budgeting.                   • Holds down interest on loans as bond rating improves for taxing district.  • Helps prevent slumlords from accumulating more distressed property.  • The relationship between the tax collector and taxpayer remains unchanged.   • In subsequent years revenue can equal or exceed your budgeted amount.  • The taxing entity (city, county or school district) retains control over the liens.  • The property becomes a tax source again for the local government.
