It was just canceled and now it’s on ServiceLink Auction.

I actually just did a dscr loan to pay off the hard money I borrowed on the second property (where we live and rent the actual house) I estimate the appraisal to come in around $215-280K which if I were to take out 80% would barley give me enough to buy anything in the FL market and have cash left over for renovations.Not sure if im missing a step here or if it might be best to buy an auction home with that cash to flip and have more capital to have more deal options. 

The county auctioned off my house and now we face evict

You could get it from auctions.

Auctions are every Tuesday and Thursday in DuPage jail building and day before after 3 PM you can see asking prices.Here is the link:http://www.dupagesheriff.org/CivilProcess/497/

lol we are talking the same, lets say we do some input statistic analysis ( i did it before ), so in 2009 the mortgage debt with typical husband and wife working is like 29% ; now that number is going as much as 44% in some cities. also our home price is created using auction systems, if there'e 100 houses in one zip code, the pricing discovery in created by the last 3-5 home purchasers, which indicate 95% of other folks does not necessarily able to purchase home or do mortgage with current rate.Which cause a problem, one household either need to maintain job that can continously paying the mortgage and/or the loyalty of husband and wife is a MUST LOL Having said that, to maintain 1.5 mil homes in bay area for example, husband and wife should not divorce for 30 years at least.But for 150k house in Ohio, the husband can divorce their wife anytime while maintain the mortgage payment LOLHaving said that, getting divorce is very suicidal for financial.but also creating different effect, for single guy, there's almost no way they can purchase home, unless they're cardiologist or any other high income earner LOL (this example is just for fun).In our area the home supply is coming from two sources mainly: people going retirement and want to cash out or separation in relationship LOLGetting separation is very expensive especially if you born in 1970/1980/1990s, I would even argue the moment you are married-->single thus you become the renter class again LOL

I don't have fiduciary duties to sellers and I can't afford to buy their homes at ARV value, just so someone like you sings praises to me.

While opinions of well meaning referral sources are helpful and I could give you names and numbers, they are also highly subjective.I doubt there is a property manager active in Cincinnati that has not had one client sing his praises and another quit in dissatisfaction.

If a property was sold at auction 2012, then again in 2016, and the tax cert is still held by the state, would that be eligible for a counter offer?

Combined with the price I paid through the auction, they are much higher than market valueproperty 1: paid 100k, owe 170k.
