can you really buy property at tax lien sales?
I think you can just buy the tax liens at these sales.
If the tax liens are not redeemed, you get the property after a certain point in time.
Otherwise you get to collect the interest and late fees for yourself. They are usually a pretty good return on your money even if you don’t get the property.

yep. your local courthouse will have auctions on the front steps about once a month. (more often if you live in a "we don’t pay taxes here" kinda town.)

In CA, property owners must be delinquent for 5 years before they are auctioned off on the courthouse steps, held once a year. Cash only though.
