It’s the Fall Annual Tax Lien Sale in Mississippi. I’m going to list the basic steps I went through to bid in the August 2020 Mississippi Tax Lien Auction. I’ve already discussed why I participate in tax lien auctions in a previous blog post. This year, I’m excited to be bidding in the state that I invest in.
NO, I’M NOT LEAVING THE COMFORT OF MY OWN HOME TO BID IN MISSISSIPPI!
It took me a while to find the website that is used by the state of Mississippi and sure enough, I soon realized the process of bidding was not going to the be same as it is in Florida or Arizona.
I’ve broken down the main steps below:
Step 1. Register with the tax auction website
Step 2. Complete the W-9 Form
Step 3. Contact the specific county I registered for to find out additional requirements of bidding.
*I recommend sending any information they require in step 3 with a signature required.*
Step 4. I checked the website every few days to see if the properties were loaded.
Step 5. I imported the entire list of properties into Excel and begin to weed out the ones that I didn’t meet my criteria.
Step 6. Once pre-bidding begin, I entered the max bid amount for the properties I was interested in.
Step 7. I chose to watch the live bid since this was my first time bidding in this state, but you certainly don’t have to.
Overall, it was a good experience, I won on a few of the properties, I was interested in.
More details will be presented in the Tax Lien Buying Course!
