Banco del Suquía c/ Tomassini (CSJN, 2002) — A Province Cannot Make the Home Unseizable

Nothing on this page describes United States practice. There is no certificate sold to an investor, no administrative sale of land for unpaid tax, and no redemption window after a subasta judicial in Argentina. If you arrived carrying US assumptions, read falsos-amigos first.

We ask for one because writing these from primary sources is slow work, and knowing who relies on it tells us which country to do next.
