When you first sign up for eTaxSales, it’s typical to just go through all the states and all the lists, downloading everything. Upcoming sales, OTCs lists, all of it. What you may want to do, though, is check up on the OTC lists in various states at different times throughout the year. We try to update those lists as the counties post new OTC lists.
I mention this because I just recently put in another batch of all of Arkansas’s OTC deed lists. That means it includes not just all of the properties that were already offered for over-the-counter sale by the various Arkansas counties, it’s “fresh” enough to include the properties that didn’t sell at the tax deed sales last fall. (Note: these OTC lists do not include properties that didn’t sell at the Arkansas tax deed sales that have already occurred this year. Those will be available later on in 2013).
That being said, it’s not just Arkansas. We also update the OTC lists for the other states that offer them, too. If you think you already have a county’s OTC list, be sure to check the postdate. If it’s more recent than the last one you downloaded, get the new list. Not only will this new list include any new properties, it will also have taken off anything that was already sold from the older, prior list you have.
We update these OTC lists as often as we can. We usually try to stick to the same schedules the county’s themselves use, but remember, other people can always buy those properties, too. As I say every single week/time/blog entry, and seemingly every moment of every day, make sure to do your research to ensure that the property you’ve got your eye on hasn’t already been taken by someone else.
Good luck out there,
