What the record says about the property

The appraiser's roll shows 1,779 square feet of living area, built in 1958. It carried a homestead exemption, so someone lived there. Tax deed sale: a mortgage rarely survives, but check for government liens.

The deal memo

About 250 words in plain language: what this is, the math, what nobody knows yet, and what to check before you bid. Written from the record and the ZIP numbers, never from a guess about the house.

Liens and deeds

Florida tax deed facts: the owner can redeem until the winning bidder's full payment reaches the clerk, and not after. Mortgages usually do not survive a tax deed; some government liens can. Title companies generally want a quiet title action or a title certification before insuring a resale.

Deeds, mortgages, liens and releases are on the county clerk's official records. Search by the address and by the owner's name from the appraiser record. A mortgage with no release after it is a mortgage still on the house.

Owner contact and a mortgage and lien check are on the Investor plan, 50 of each a month.

Before you bid

The owner can pay up and cancel this sale right until the county takes the winner's money. In Florida there is no getting the house back after that.
A tax deed usually wipes out mortgages, but government liens can survive. You will likely need a quiet title action or a title certification before a title company insures a resale.
Nobody has been inside. Drive by. Assume repairs.
Read the county's deposit and payment rules. Most want a deposit to register and full payment within a day.
