Can someone explain to me how Tax Sale Consultants work?

The RE broker found someone reputable and got back to me with a quote of $45K for the big office building and 40K for the smaller office building (would need to be done in next 3 years) – this would include tear down, using shingles that last 30 years, repairing mortar joints on chimney, etc.
