When the certificate of sale is not made to the municipality, it shall, unless so recorded within three months of the date of sale, be void as against a bona fide purchaser, lessee or mortgagee whose deed, lease or mortgage is recorded before the recording of the certificate. After recording the tax sale certificate, the lien holder shall deliver a copy of the recorded certificate showing the book, page, date, and cost of recording to the tax collector. The tax collector shall maintain the information as a permanent record.
