Tax sales on houses in NC?

Question:

A few years ago I picked up the John Beck course on buying houses at tax sales for really cheap prices, but the book wasn't put together well, and my co-investor changed his mind and we never went through with it. Now I have $6,000 that I could invest in a house to live in. I need to spend the next few years supervising in-home therapy for my autistic son, and owning a house free and clear would take a huge financial load off my mind. And honestly, I couldn't qualify for a loan anyway. But so how do you find these properties? And don't the ones in the smaller towns have less competition? I'd appreciate information about buying these homes...the main fact that I remember from that course is that in NC, the purchaser owns the house, unlike in other states where it can take years to actually claim ownership for some reason. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, so that I can focus more on my son without worrying so much financially! Thanks. :)

I don't know anything about Tax Deed Sales in North Carolina, though I do participate in lien sales in other states.

Try to get info but don't expect much. Most county officials either don't know much or just won't divulge it.

Maybe they can send you a list of properties or even a list of the rules.

Look online at the NC laws.

You just have to learn step by step. Most people will not give up info easily.
