I am new to Investing, and I'm getting involved in wholesaling. From reading and listening on BP, contacting property owners who owe back taxes seems like a good strategy to find sellers. I just don't know how to find these properties.
I've looked around the county(Franklin) auditor website and can find tax information on specific properties, but I'm wondering if there is a way to find a list of properties on which back taxes are owed.
I understand that all county auditor websites are different, but is it possible that I could find a list of all properties or owners that owe back taxes?
Is the county auditor website the correct place to look?
Any other advice about how to find distressed properties would be very helpful.

You can certainly get a list of the properties if you go to the tax collector's office. I would give them a call before, maybe they can point you to a website or something else, so you don't have to go there every season.
Dont forget to, post a update here on what you find!
