Driving for Dollars Led to Tax Delinquent House

[Kris Mo]

Hey Everyone,

I'm fairly new and never bought a property before but plan to in 2019. Right now I'm just trying to learn as much as I can and take a lot of action. So I took BP's advice and started driving for dollars. I found a street that has a bunch of nice homes except for one that is really displeasing to the eye. So I looked up the county records and found out that it is tax delinquent 2014, 2015, 2016 with a total amount of $8k. This house has a TON of potential but what would be the next step? I want to send him a letter stating that I would be interested in buying his house but how does a house with tax delinquencies come in play?
