A grapes of those usually trade at each auction.Depends on 2 things: 1) How much bidders will likely bid at the auction and 2)how many other Certificates you have to pay off.1) Look at the past few Tax Deed auctions and see if lots similar to yours are being bought, and for how much2) Find our how many other Certificates you’ll have to pay off, could be 1 or 2, could 5 or 6.and the total cost.I see it is in Cape Coral...same analysis, only check to see if the water/sewer assessment, $10-$15k from what I remember has already been paid or not....this makes a huge difference....when you’re looking at past Tax Deed lot sales in the area, determine if those lots had outstanding water/sewer assessments on them or not, so you can compare apples to apples.The lots in Cape Coral definitely have more value than the ones in Lehigh.
