Delinquent Tax List Questions

Hey everyone,

I obtained a list from the county for delinquent tax properties. Dumb question here, but how do I separate the important information from the not so important. The list contains the following columns. Parcel ID, Owner, Mailing Address, City, State, 2018 amount, delinquent amount, and the total. I feel like maybe the list does not include all the information I need. How do I tell how many years they have been delinquent for? Looking forward to everyone's feedback. Thank you!

Hi Mike, The list you got is just the start.  Now you look up the tax parcel ID on your county tax collector's web site and you will find sales history, property address, tax history etc.  Once you have the actual address of the property sorted you can type it in on one of the street view programs and get an idea if you want it.  Then drive by, search the county GIS map, search the probate records for liens from previous owners and you are on your way.
