Finding Foreclosure Auctions In Your Area

I wanted to share with you a few ways that I locate both private and public foreclosure auctions all over the country. I firmly believe that attending foreclosure auctions is a very effective way of "bumping into" bonified cash buyers. There are two types of auctions.

Public Auctions
Public Auctions are held usually at the county courthouse. Simply call the county courthouse and ask to speak to whoever is in charge of the "Property Foreclosure Aucitons" NOT Tax Lien Auctions. Public auctions will be placed in public view either on a bulletin board, or in the legal section of local newspapers. Plan to attend as many of these as you can.

Private Auctions
There are a few private companies who purchase bulk amounts of properties and auction them off as well. Here are a few national companies who hold auctions all over the country.

Go to either of these auction websites and click on the map your state and it will pull up a list of upcoming aucitons that you can attend. Attending private auctions are also a great way to meet cash buyers and exchange business cards with them.
Hope this information helps.

Happy Investing!
