Well I didn’t get the property I wanted. It went for $1400 and I bid $1300. I would have bid more but since I’d have to pay for it with a credit card, I really couldn’t afford to. And there’s no telling, maybe that other bidder would have kept going higher and higher anyway. So…I’m disappointed. But thank you for your finger-and-toe crossing!
One of the properties that I had earmarked as interesting was 1.74 acres in Negaunee. It sold for $3500 three days ago and it’s already listed on Craigslist for $15,000!! Talk about a fast turnaround; the buyer won’t even get his new deed for 30 days!!

Ah, it’s hard to not win, but you will find a good place if you are consistently looking, for sure. 🙂

One of these days! Given my teeny tiny budget, it’s really hard to find anything.

Hopefully some folks will make some huge Amazon purchases through your link and that would help with the saving process. A tiny bit at a time, but we are good at making do, eh?

I just bought a folding camp stove oven & 2 books..$104. from Amazon but because I am in Canada I doubt it counts. When I go through the link on your page, Amazon then send me to Amazon.ca

Thanks! I think it should still work. I’ll check tomorrow and see if they’ve been credited to me.

I tried this once thinking I would do a “flip” and that is what you’re up against in these sales…the problem is the people you are up against have bottom less pockets while you are on a fixed budget..they don’t care how much they pay as long as they get it for a price lower than they can relist it at. Here in our town the Sheheen’s, the Cantey’s, and the Davis’s are the wealthy land baron familie s they were all there bidding and they bought every single tract that was up for tax sale. Good luck!
