I'm a newbie investor and also Realtor in the Orlando, FL area and I'm starting the process of looking at getting a foreclosure home from a foreclosure auction from the local county court. How do You find all the property liens for a giving property and how do you find out what the balance is on these liens and if there are any past due amounts?
The most assured way is to have a title company perform a title search but this is going to cost you $200-$300. Or you can visit the local jurisdiction's courthouse website or physically go to the courthouse to look up liens. Tedious work though.
If you are doing it yourself, make sure you are performing a search on the property and a name search on the owner. Lots of judgments get missed if you don't search the name as well. In FL you should be able to find a title company or attorney to do the search for you in the 100-300 range depending on your specific need.
ProTitleUSA will do all you ask... we looked at a note and when Pro Title did the research..... we found a 35k sewer lien...... passed on that note!!! They know the space.
