Online tax lien auction - adding all participants bids
RealAuction company has added all the bid data, by bidder, for each lien in past auctions. Grant Street Auctions, the other major supplier of software for tax auctions has provided all the bids for several years. I haven't bid in counties using Grant Street software but always liked seeing that data. Now that RealAuction has added it for counties I invest in, I can begin to use it to see what my competition has done in the past and can formulate a better bid strategy.
It's kind of like having a peek at their playbook from past games. I can't see what they're doing in the current auction until it's over, but some bidders do the same type of bidding each year. By adding the names, parcel numbers and type of underlying property, I can get a better handle on the competition. Did a quick blog post and video showing this on my BP blog; Link to blog post.
