Tax Delinquents
Hey guys quick questions, where do i obtain tax delinquent lists? Is there a certain website for each county/state or do i have to go down to my local court house? Also what is it that im actually looking for besides name and address, how do i find if they even have a property thats backed in taxes? Steps to to get to the seller b4 they even get on the tax list ?
Sorry if questions r stupid , just trying to learn as much as possible

Why not?
Yes but you can do a deal before the auction. If it is a tax lien state then only a lien is sold against the property at the auction and the original owner still owns the property. You can still buy it from the original owner. The back taxes get paid at settlement.
They have to provide a list otherwise no one would know what they are bidding on. You just have to dig deeper. Talk to the people who run the tax sale.
