I bought a Texas Tax Deed, now what?

[Matt Hogle]

Hello Bigger Pockets Readers!

I had a few quick questions for you.

Let's say I have purchased a tax deed at the monthly auction (Texas sheriff auction) for a reasonable price on a prospective property I anticipate to not be redeemed during the redemption period. 

- What are my options during the redemption period other than just waiting for the redemption period to expire?

- Is it possible to have the property owner waive their right of redemption (perhaps for financial consideration)?

-How does the quiet-title process usually work?

-What are  some of your experiences with obtaining title to the property, and what have you learned (I want to hear the good, the bad, and the ugly).

Thanks!

Matt
