Be your LOCAL EXPERT!

In general, you'll need to register at the sale (and usually there's a line of people registering) and give them a certified check, though I don't recall the amount (you also need to have a certified check for 20% of the purchase price of whatever properties you buy).

There are plenty more resources you can find under Education from how to's, blogs from our experts and podcasts.

You can learn a ton from the real estate experts on the site.Also, please get involved with the Memphis Investors Group (MIG), which is our local Real Estate Investor Assocation (REIA).

I don't think it's too much of an exaggeration to say I am a community expert in Airbnb, Homeaway,VRBO, Flipkey, etc.

Unless you had some in with the trustee's holding the sales ( which is probably not legal)  you just need to be prepped to do the leg work show up with your funds and bid.Is FLA a state were you need certified funds in full to bid at auction ?
