Submit & Identify Tax Foreclosures
Click Submit. Look for cases with Case Type: Civil Action Foreclosure (CV) where the plaintiff is a County or Municipality (e.g. "County of Graham VS ..."). These are tax foreclosures — the county is suing for unpaid property taxes.
Important: Property Address
The property address is in the county tax report attached to the complaint — look for PROPERTY DESCRIPTION (e.g. "14401 HAMLET RD"). Do NOT use the defendant's mailing address ("whose last known address is") — the defendant may be an executor or heir living at a completely different address.
