The Search for Land:
Tax Sale to Homestead Checklist
Zillow isn’t the only way to find land for your future homestead.
I’m sharing the exact Tax Sale Checklist that I use to find and research properties for my homestead.
It’s a practical roadmap for anyone who wants to see how this process actually works from the ground up.
This Checklist Covers:
What to confirm before you look at a single property
Where to get the tax sale list and how the process works
The legal checks that protect you before you ever bid
How to research a property without leaving your couch
A simple test to know if the land can support your homestead plans.
What to have ready before you walk into an auction
How to track everything during the waiting period
What to do if the owner never pays and the process moves forward
This is one section of the property that I am currently pursuing through the tax sale foreclosure process as I work toward establishing my own permanent homestead.
