Using Public Records to Locate Properties Considered Off Market

Now I am all for free things or next to nothing -- $35.00; The CIX is too costly to locate properties that I decided that as a tax payer I should use our county seat(s) in all 50 states to get access to ad valorem taxes. An ad valorem tax (Latin for "according to value") is a tax whose amount is based on the value of a transaction or of property. It is typically imposed at the time of a transaction, as in the case of a sales tax or value-added tax (VAT).

I just need to pay a one time cost of $35.00 as a member to get access to tax delinquent properties and probate cases and I do a random search by name, parcel number, or address.

Now that is one-stop shopping till you are dropping my friend...literally after hours and when in down time mode I am perusing the county clerk's web portal to locate in Pinellas county where I reside delinquent tax records and probate cases by name. Here is the web site for all 50-states (shhhh ancient Chinese secret) http://publicrecords.netronline.com/state/FL/county/pinellas/

For example I used two letter "ab" in their search engine for FREE to locate taxes paid and unpaid and generated the following response at https://www.pinellas.county-taxes.com/public/real_estate/parcels/R438521/bills/8409779

So shop your counties in your states for less than a high priced meal...but do celebrate with champaign because you removed the pain of doing property searches online that cost an arm and a leg that others are guru wannabees capitalizing on others lack of knowledge because knowledge is power!
