Hi, I am interested in attending to the tax-deed sale this coming tuesday. So far what I have studied about tax deeds is that any lien holder wants his investment back and applies for a deed application so that’s why it goes into public auction to foreclose the property. I saw the list that the county has publish for tax-deed sale and I am interested in purchasing the tax deed of one specific property ( after reviewing assessed value, location ) once I purchase the tax deed what is the next step to acquire free and clear title to the property. Please numerate it one by one. I have around 20K to invest. I think is could be enough if the starting bid is only $1900 and let’s say if I budgeted not going higher that 5K, assessed value is $135K.
Or do you know any specific classes or where to go, to get more informed about it, besides de library, I nearly understand the laws language.

uh…keep in mind you are “taking posession”; may be subject to any outstanding liens on the property. Federal tax liens, mortgages may still be in effect.
That 135 k may have a 130 K mortgage or a 100K federal tax lien

Tax deed and a foreclosure sale are two different things. A tax deed sale is just that, the owner hasn’t paid taxes for several years and the holder of a tax certificate is forcing the sale. You are buying “as is.” Now there probably isn’t a mortgage on the property because most mortgagees (lenders) would have foreclosed if the taxes weren’t paid. but if one slipped by, you may be responsible for the mortgage. You will have pay the day of the sale and you can’t bid subject to financing. You must have the cash. A tax deed does not give you insurable title to the property. You must retain an attorney to file what’s called a quiet title action. Only then will you have insurable title.

Do not expect that you will buy this $135,000 property for $5,000. It’s just not going to happen. If there is a lender involved, the lender will buy the property and then place it for sale on the market. If there is no lender involved, the OWNER of the property might pay off the taxes before the sale to save the property. Otherwise, you will be facing OTHER bidders for such a property, and you can be assured that the bidding will FAR exceed $20,000.
