Marcelo Amado How do you guys do due diligence before bidding at tax deed / foreclosure auctions?
13 March 2026 | 6 replies
Hi everyone,I’ve been spending more time looking at tax deed and foreclosure auctions, and one thing that always worries me is making sure I’m not missing something during due diligence.Before bidding on a property, I usually try to check as much as possible, such as:unpaid property taxesliens (IRS, municipal, HOA, utility, etc.)code violationsopen permitsjudgments or court records tied to the ownerpotential mortgages that might survive the salecity fines or special assessmentsanything else that could become my responsibility after purchaseThe challenge is that this process can be pretty time-consuming, especially when every county website is different and information is spread across multiple places.I’ve seen some investors outsource this to lien search companies or hire people to research properties before auctions, while others seem to do everything themselves.So I’m curious how other investors here handle it.A few questions for those of you who regularly buy at auctions:What is your standard due diligence checklist before bidding?
