For Sheriff’s Sales, foreclosures, tax sales and judicial sales as well as any other sales a county or state may have, you're going to discover every county in every state/province/territory operates and does things a little differently than the one next to it - even when its in the same state or province. It requires LOTS of time and diligence. This is what I learned: For the work which NEEDS to be done BEFORE the sale, there really isn't any website. The best suggestions I can offer: 1] Go to your county court house to the Sheriff's Office. You might even be able to get the info you need on-line BUT there may be a charge for the on-line access. 2A] It doesn't make any difference whether you live in a large city or a village/borough, make the investment of time to go to the County Court House or City Hall. Visit the Recorder of Deeds Office/County Clerk's Office or whatever the office is referred. The names are different, but the Office's function is the same: to record ALL REAL property documents. The ladies and gentlemen in the City Hall or Court House are there to help the folks who come there to do business and take care of various matters about that city or county. 3A] Ask for the rules for Sheriff's sales and foreclosures. AND ask for the information you need to participate and bid on property. Ask for a list or if they are hanging on the wall, grab one or two. 3B] JUST for practice you'll need a specific, actual address - even if its your own, a friend or relative living in that same county or city. The property owner's name would be very helpful. Ask an employee in that office how to research a property. Write down and/or remember each of the steps you are shown. 3C] After being shown what to do and how to do it, research the one or two properties you have at the Recorder of Deeds Office/County Clerk's Office. If you get stuck, ask for help. 4] If you are able to do the research, attend AT LEAST 3 of those Sheriff's Sales. You aren't going to bid on any property. You aren't going to buy any property. You are there STRICTLY as an observer. You want to see how the process works. 5] At the sheriff's sales and foreclosures, you'll probably see the same faces at sale after sale. Offer to take one of those folks to lunch or dinner and discuss your intentions. Thanks for asking your Q! I enjoyed answering it! VTY, Ron Berue Yes, that is my real last name!
