Driving for dollars deal
I'm in the process of looking for my 1st deal and I found by driving for dollars a property that was "in a jungle". After researching the public records, I noticed that the property is scheduled for tax auction in about 7 weeks. There are also some code violations for nuisance posted on the property. The owner died 5 years ago, but no one filled for probate so far. There is a lien also from the funeral company. I couldn't find any relatives of the owner. Are there any options to stop the tax auction and somehow get the property under a contract?
I am situated in South Florida.
