The benefit is that its cheap, and it provideds all of the tax delinquent properties in LA COUNTY but its non specific and doesnt show any specific criteria im looking for (2-4 years delinquent with some equity, SFR).

This seems better on paper than a hard money loan or private equity assuming my math is right... what are the downsides?
