I got into the whole tax sale thing and went to the lawyers in charge of it to ask what i could legally do with the property should i decide to buy it. I've also been reading a lot about people writing letters and offering deals to homeowners, which was my idea with a couple properties. When i asked the lawyer whether i could do that, he was very serious when he told me no. On the other hand, he said many of the homes aren't up for auction when the auction comes around because they came up with the money. Hmmm... All of a sudden?

How easy is it to get around these laws? Technically the title is still under they current owners name until the auction, so isn't it their choice? Does anyone else know anything about this? Thanks
