House sold tax sale can I ask buyer to take it 2 mos early?
My house sold on tax sale, my fiance and my mother had just passed away and I fell 1100. Behind. My father has gotten ill,and is going to need me to move out to take care of him. I'm still 2 months short of the redemption period. Is there any way that I could get in touch with the buyers and ask them to take property early? I would still pay the penalty. And tax up to redemption. So I could claim surplus and get everything to my father's. Does anyone know about who I even ask?

What state are you in?
How much is the overbid?
The answer is likely no, however you can still sell it to whomever you like until it is sold. The price they paid at auction is likely less than a retail price you could sell it for.
I would advise you to list it on MLS immediately to see if you can sell it for more than what the overbid is.
