It seems like this is only a live auction.

The post tax deed auction list of Lands available is my favorite acquisition but most of it is in these zip codes.

Is there any experiences that you have made to get the property after sending it to the TDA(Tax deed auction).

If you were buying a foreclosed home through the court foreclosure auction then you should be careful and need to do due diligence days before the auction to make sure your buying the first lien which is the mortgage.

Have you checked county court house auctions?

Short Story: Refinanced 5 single family units into a 24 unit complex.Back Story: Purchased my primary house(105K) thru auction with a very friendly but very real loan thru my parents(70K), I was originally looking at 30k houses and this one didn't sell at auction and kind of fell into my lap.

If the house is about to be auctioned, you should consider refer the seller to a realtor.

Do I need to get the hard money loan first or i bid at a foreclosure auction first?

Now, approximately a week after that was put under contract  I was the high bidder on a duplex at a tax auction which was also about 30% below market value and with the court approval time and 30 days to close will fall perfectly in line with when the rehab on unit number 1 is complete... and after a two month rehab on that property it will cash flow $1000 per month... third and fourth unit... check and check.... 

Also, the reason it's small is because the amount of time it will take you to manage it (collect rent, late notices, overlocking, auctions, etc.) versus the amount of money you will make.
