@Marquita Smith Hello Ms Smith, from all of the information that I have read, the paying of all the taxes and filing for foreclosure papers doesn't automatically grant you the property. Once the county sends you that information you can apply for foreclosure and then the property goes to the tax deed auction where the Cert owner has the opportunity to own the property free and clear should no one bid on the property.

No offense but I would strongly suggest you do your own research the properties in which you plan to invest in. I would physically go and see these properties first hand, Google is great and all but sometimes they get it wrong.Your eye may be different than someone else's.

Hello everyone, I wanted to know of any investor friendly title companies in Jacksonville Fl.

I also wanted to know what is that average cost of filing title.

Thanks in advance.

@JAKE THOMAS, that is a really nice flip, great job!

@PATRCK L Thank Patrick, I do plan to borrow against the property to make it habitable, so sounds like I will need to quiet the title regardless. Thanks for the info, I can't tell you how amped I am for the auction next week down here in Jacksonville. In Duval, it's an online auction only

I was born in Columbus, SS area. Good luck to you

@Walter V. Thanks for the info, I've read the articles from the links you've sent me. I think I might just stay away from mobile homes altogether.

@Patrick L. Thanks I appreciate the info, the auction is on the 9th and I'm dead set on getting my first property, granted, the numbers are there.

@Jean Norton Thanks Jean, I read your story about the building and the HOAs. It was real informative, I too was under the assumption that all HOA fees/lien would nullify upon a tax deed purchase.

The houses that I seek out are in low income areas, I do plan to keep and borrow bank money for the rehab to rent out. Any more advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks again.
