It is best IMO to check the local County Gov. for information first as most of them provide information on how to obtain the list of Tax sale property or provide the list for FREE and they provide info on the purchase process they use.......some do charge a small fee....

The Counties are the same place the Pay Sites get their information so going there yourself (Web Sites) will provide you with the most updated info and is usually FREE.

Counties do the Tax Sales in different ways so it is a good idea to check with them and see...
For Example....http://www.bid4assets.com/storefront/?sfid=491
http://www.stancounty.com/tr-tax/auction/index.htm

Another reason to check yourself first as often the Counties Nationwide often make sure the public has access to this information....That is what allows the Pay Sites to gain access

If you just want to Browse Actual Foreclosures...You might wish to check out the Bank/Gov sites created to give the public access to view the Listed Foreclosures/Properties for sale and to provide information on the purchase process used plus much more information it's Free and updated constantly...Sites like..

You will need to find an agent that subscribes the programs like foreclosureradar to give you a free list of foreclosure updates or you can subscribe too for about $500 to $600 a year.

You could check http://finestexpert.com, that offers free services and has a wide range of properties that are for sale, rental properties, foreclosed properties. You could also do some research on the internet

You should go into realtor.com for the most up to date listings. Find a local realtor and have her begin to locate these properties on your behalf. This is free, and can be customized just for your benefit. This is absolutely the best way to go. If you are in the Northeast Ohio area, contact me and we can set you up for whatever it is that you are looking for, including HUD properties, bank owned properties, short sales, probate cases and other distressed properties. Good luck.

PropertyHookup is a good one, thanks! But I think you guys shoud make properties by state option.. Then people be able to track offers in their states. As for me there on http://www.trulia.com or http://www.indexpost.com are good examples.

Try Bidselect.com, it is free.

Go to hud.gov and go to the link hud homes. From there you will select your state then from there it will allow you to select cities.

A site I used to find useful was REOTrans, they have many listings nationwide.

The best public site is http://www.HUD.gov but if you would like professional guidance navigating through the "what ifs" you should work with a REALTOR® in your area.

In most cases, the ads for lists of foreclosed homes is a way to make money by the company. The best thing to do is contact a professional real estate agent and get a list of available listings in your area. All REALTORS have access to every home listed with a real estate broker and most banks list their foreclosed home with a broker.

IRS Website is a great place to find info such as this.

Unfortunately, most tax foreclosure sales ARE NOT available online. The tax collector/assesor's office in the city you're looking to buy in, will have a list of what will be coming for sale. In most counties, these sales occur only once a year, so be on your toes!
If you're buying a home, you need a Realtor that knows the local market, period.

If you're not paying all cash for your property, and if you haven't already, you should plan on getting prequalified for a home loan. If you're serious about looking to buy, most sellers require a prequalification letter to accept an offer. If you need the names of trusted lenders, I can give you 2 or 3 nationwide lending experts that are tried and tested by yours truly.

Contact me if you would like more information, I'm never too busy to answer a question

If you purchase a tax foreclosure in Jacksonville, FL, what you are looking for is a tax certificate sale. These are normally posted for sale in May of each year. You must pay the back taxes owed and hold the certificate for at least 2 years before you can apply for a tax deed. Meanwhile, you will need to continue to pay the taxes each year in order for a tax certificate for that year not to be sold to another party. If you do succeed in obtaining the property, you acquire it with liens agaisn't it that you could be held liable for because you can not sale it with clear title until the liens are satisfied.

It is better to purchase a foreclosure because you will receive clear title to it. All foreclosures are listed for sale with Realtors and posted in the MLS database because mortgage companies require a professional to be marketing the property for sale.

Your best bet is to find a Realtor in your area that you feel comfortable working with and give them your search criteria. They can set you up for auto-email so you will be notified each time a property comes on the market that matches what you are looking for. The best deals go quickly, usually within the first week. By having a Realtor looking out for you it will be possible for your offer to be one of the first presented. You can not make an offer on property in Jacksonville, FL without having a loan approval letter or a "proof of funds" statement showing you have the credit or assets to fulfill the contract agreement.

If you would like me to refer an agent to you in your area, then contact Brenda Gravitt CRS, GRI and I will have a Realtor contact you.

The answer to this 2007 Question is....... http://trweb.co.clark.nv.us/county/treas/Auction%20page%20po…

http://publicrecords.onlinesearches.com/Nevada-Foreclosures-…

i've been to several sites and they all want credit card information so it's not free, you can get a 7-day free trial only if you give your information, i know i've been trying for months

The answer is very simple. The best and least deceiving website is http://www.hud.gov/homes/index.cfm . This belongs to the actual government ran agency called Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). You can search by states then counties etc... Please do not pay to look at these properties. There are alot of scams going on there. It should not cost you to look. Any good real estate in your area should be able to show them to you them submit an offer if you are interested.

I live in New Jersey where should I start looking?

There is no single list that contains government tax foreclosures in any region.

There are various types of tax foreclosures. Unpaid property taxes are administered at the county level. There are various flavors of tax delinquency treatment:

1. Properties may be sold as a consequence of unpaid real estate taxes. In most cases, lien holders will be notified first and given a chance to bring the taxes up to date. This may precipitate a bank foreclosure since many mortgages and trustee deeds contain a provision that the property owner keep taxes up to date. County offices post these notices publicly.

2. In some states, like Arizona, tax LIENS are offered at auction, not the property itself. The property owner becomes indebted to the new owner of the tax lien, who brings the tax bill up to date at the tax lien auctionat the county seat.

3. Personal taxes (income tax) and property liens attached to these delinquencies are administed by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service.

I just realized that I forgot to add one major point about strongly recommending having a Real Estate Agent perform all of your work including getting you any list you want.

Your Agent will get you these lists at the low-low cost of ABSOLUTELY FREE. So, don't go to these ridiculous websites that ALWAYS have their hand out reaching into your pocket only to give you less than what you bargained for.

I will be giving tips on a frequent basis. This should help answer most of these common questions.

Everyone wants to buy foreclosures for one great reason--banks sell them at huge discounts. Buying one from a bank will save you anywhere from 20% up to 50%. Here in Colorado the average savings is 34.7%. So, how do you go about finding these foreclosured homes that are now bank owned? It is simple, call a Real Estate Agent. Agents not only know which houses are bank owned, but your own Agent will most likely get paid at the closing by the selling Bank's Agent, and not paid by you.

Now, stop worrying about doing all of this Sherlock Holmes work yourself and pick up the phone. These Agents are dying to do all of this work for you.

Another Hint: You know you have found the right Real Estate Agent because as you interview several of them, one of them will stand out. That Agent will have all of the answers because they understand everything about foreclosures. Pick that person and stick with them.
