title search on all auction parcels?

[Marci Stein]

I'm interested in bidding on 4 properties at the yearly upcoming auction in my county--how have others dealt with title searches when there are mulitple homes of interest? to title search them all would be very expensive, esp. if i dont get them .is it nesessary to search them all? last year i bid on 1 parcel , title search was $200, a nd i didnt get the house. how much do you typically pay for a search? I'm not really sure I want to do the search myself, with no experience . thanks very much.
