My cousin was sick for a few years and out of work and Florida is auctioning his house. Will he get any money from it after the taxes are paid?

The lien amount, tax owed plus interest and penalty if applicable, and net of unreasonable fees noted above, is satisfied from the proceeds of the sale. Remaining proceeds should be distributed to the owner of the home and failure to do so would be a crime of theft.

Correct, but I can see how I worded my original comment that it could imply that the proceeds wouldnt be theirs if they allowed the foreclosure to happen. They would still get their proceeds, just likely less since they wouldn't be able to shop anything including the buyer and purchase price.
