Buying At The Auction?
Can anyone give me some insight to buying at the foreclosure auction? I am buying in a county in FL that requires that I provide a Certificate of Sale and a Certificate of Title before the end of the day if I win the auction. Is this a standard form? Can you send me one?
Thanks!
A 'Certificate of Sale' is a certificate issued at a judicial sale that entitles the buyer to receive a deed after confirmation of court for the purchase of property.
I have copied this directly from the county's website....FINAL PAYMENT: Purchase price must be paid in full by cash, money order or cashier's check no later than 2:00 p.m. on the day of the sale. It is the bidders responsibility to provide the Clerk with the Certificate of Sale, Certificate of Title.
If you need assistance in preparing these forms, you will need to research at the law library located in the Public Library at 211 Dakin Avenue, Kissimmee, FL (407) 935-0777 or contact an attorney for assistance. The Certificate of Sale must be provided to the Clerk the same day as the sale. If no objections are filed within 10 days of the sale, the Clerk's Office will issue and record the Certificate of Title. However, if the 10th day falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the title will be issued on Tuesday; if Monday is a holiday, the title will be issued on Wednesday. You must provide doc stamps (.70 per $100.00) and a DR219 form to be sent to the Recording Department with the Certificate of Title for recordation.
Again...are these standard forms that I just need to fill out?
