Some cases are hourly whereas others are set up on a flat rate. Flat rate retention occurs when the tax buyer has a portfolio of liens requiring foreclosure. If small tax buyers seek to obtain a flat rate, they are best off forming a group with other tax buyers and placing their common portfolio for servicing.
