Birmingham, AL and Memphis, TN Tax Sales

[James Brown]

Does anyone have experience with the tax sale process in Birmingham, AL or Memphis, TN and the schedule that it takes place?  I am currently located in Nashville, TN and the tax sales have been flooded with investors that are bidding market prices for the properties. Are tax sales a viable option to purchase real estate in Birmingham or Memphis?

@James Brown -  I've been to the one in Memphis but never purchased anything.  This year will be different because it is all online which opens it up to more outside investors.  I'm projecting that anything seen as a deal on the ground will go higher than I'd bid.  Many I expect will either go high or be returned to the city.
