Online Purchases

Several states are now conducting their sales online -either exclusively or in partnership with the auctions. From the state's point of view, this type of sale is faster and more economical. It can also be an advantage from an investor's point of view. One obvious benefit is that you can buy from another county or state without having to travel. Different counties have different rules on how the purchases are handled. Oh, and buyer beware with this method. You never really know what you are getting if you are not able to visually inspect it.
