Baltimore Tax Sale Help

I kind of need some help with a personal issue. My fiancé and I have been talking about getting his now deceased grandfather's property in our name and fixing It up for us. Today, we checked the mail and there was a foreclosure notice in the mail. Unfortunately, his grandfather couldn't pay last years taxes before passing.

My question is, is there any hope for us? We don't have the money to pay off the certificate. Is there anything that could work in our favor. I've learned that if they were to foreclose and they bid higher than what the backed taxes were, that they would have to pay that bid amount to the rightful owner. How does that work? Is there any way I can check for the bid amount or any other valuable information pertaining to it?
