list of properties for auction & best way to research valuation

[Basu G.]

Hi All,

11/07 was the first time we were at auction physically, though we had bid on few properties in the past online . Was wondering what is the best way to get the list of all properties that are going to be auctioned on that day ?  We got the list through auction.com, but that wasn't complete. There were multiple other firms that were auctioning , and we found some of them by searching on google, but it sure wasn't the full list. My contractor who has been in the area for years, suggested getting Marietta Journal on Friday and going through it, but I am thinking there should be a better way to do it online, create a spread sheet.

Also how do you all get the valuations on a given property (assume we shortlist few of them based on the area) - so that we can determine the max value that we could bid upto ? Saw that some people use RealQuestExpress - basic for doing CMA ...

Thank you for your inputs
