How to get delinquent tax list in California
Hi everyone,
I'm right at the border of Los Angeles and Orange counties. I want to get a list of properties in both counties that are a year or two away from being in default due to delinquent property taxes (in other words they are a year or two away from going to auction for delinquent property taxes). I contacted the property tax assessor's office for Los Angeles County and they gave me the number to "Bid 4 Assets" which is the company that handles property auctions for many of the counties in California. Bid 4 Assets said that they could only give me a listing of the properties that were already in default and listed to be auctioned, and didn't know where I could get a pre-default list. Is there a way to get such a list? I'm a new wholesaler and I want to try to send yellow letters to property owners who are in the position of possibly losing their homes because of not paying their taxes but still have some time to work a wholesaling deal.
