What is the banks benefit by waiting for a property tax sell?

I have been trying to get rid of a house for two years now. Bank started foreclosure then cancelled the foreclosure and charged off the loan. House is worth $20,000 (due to vandals) but has a $90,000 lien.

The house is two years behind in property taxes but will not be sold by the county until three years behind. I was told they would not sell the property sooner as I requested. I have been trying to work with the bank to sell this house to interested parties but no luck.

What is the banks benefit by having the house sold for back taxes? The money is then going to the county and not the bank. So I just do not get it. Why are they dragging their feet? Unless I win the lottery I will not be inventing any funds in this property.

Any way I can unload this property quick?
