Vacant home owner who went through bankruptcy

Dave Comer

I found a great vacant home and I found the owner. The problem is that the owner doesn't believe she has control of the property anymore, since she went through bankruptcy. The house is slated for tax sale for $4000 in back taxes. She is also still listed in the assessors office as owner. Do I need to go through her bankruptcy lawyer to get this property? Any advice would help a lot. Thanks.

You can access the pacer website yourself; according to what

@Account Closed has previously posted, the fees for pacer must only be paid if the fee total hits some minimum dollar amount during the billing interval. One search shouldn't trigger that. If you don't want to take that chance, there is a phone service that allows for free automated lookup of bankruptcy records.
