Contacting people delinquent on taxes

Trying to find the best way access lists of people/addesses behind on taxes. I spoke with a company a couple months ago who sells the lists, but they wouldn't provide me with much information because I'm just a real estate investor, not a broker, etc.

We want to start small with just contacting people in 2 smaller cities. I was able to access a list online through the county treasurer's website. The list is titled: forfeited property with interested parties by city.  However, it's for forfeited property on March 1, 2008, and/or on March 1 of a prior year, for failure to pay delinquent taxes, interest, penalties, and fees, be foreclosed in favor of this County Treasurer.

This seems so old, however I talked to the county treasurer's office and they said this is the most up to date list they have and there will be a new list published in August.

How are other investors getting to this info??

Thanks so much!

  1. In larger counties the info can be obtained at the taxing authorities website.


  2. Sounds like you know what you want and are attacking the issues from the front!


  3. Cara, that is a very good list to use! We use it sometimes when we need to expand our network for acquisitions. Do reverse lookups, access realcomp, or send mailers to the homeowners. It's fun stuff!! Glad to see another local investor on here!
