Tax Overage Sales Question

Marie Broach
Posted

Hello does any one know of a Real Estate Attorney in GA that works with tax sales overage businesses. Most folks are depositing claimant checks in their bank accounts using a POA, I spoke to one Assistant Manager here in Cali and she stated that they would not accept a check that was not endorse to me. I called another bank and they spoke to their Legal Department and I got the same response. Apparently, only attorneys are permitted by the banks to open up a Trust account with their clients. What a potential nightmare, had I sent out the forms to my claimant endorse them only to find out the banks refuse to accept. I would have had to tell my claimant and would have looked like a scammer, At this point I would much rather have an Attorney in the event, if issues were to arise.

@Marie Broach You are learning why the tax sale overage business is not easy. Gurus imply it is a easy great business. It is really a tough business
