@Robert Yousef  Tax foreclosures do not show up on the MLS, have them check their county court house/auditor's office to find out where to find info on those.  

The actual home owners will be on the auditors website for whatever county they live in. 

I attended as auditor a Robert Allen seminar in Las vegas.

Also, the county auditor's website lists comparable sales information.Search engines can link you to different bank sites.

i can speak for hamilton county ohio now..... if you go to the county auditors web site you will be able to search by street address, name etc...

If you don't pay any taxes due by the 4/15 deadline then you get hit with penalties and interest.BTW, I have a brother-in-law who is an IRS auditor, filing late absolutely does reduce your chances of a randomly chosen audit.

I think that given a little more time, this could be a useful tool.Best comps are from the MLS and second best come from auditor data criss-cross databases.

If you want to do it yourself then try http://zillow.com or your county auditor's website for recent sales of similar houses.So after you have the comparable sales data you will want to estimate the cost of repairs to the house.

I started in the industry working in the back end in the loan servicing department and later moved to the front end as an auditor.

I know that you can find the owners on auditors web sites, but in the event that you can't or that its a finance company, how do you find the owners?
