I only use the free search function. You can find the address fairly easily for SFR if you use the ziprealty map function that shows satellite pictures with lot lines and address. If you click on the middle of the lot it shows the address and square footage, beds and baths. The free map on foreclosureradar isn’t perfect but gives the general location of the house. A short search on ziprealty usually results in a match.
I don’t know how to find the actual auction info for free.
I periodically use this method to see what homes are coming down the pipe in areas I’m interest in (whenever I get frustrated by lack of both quantity and quality listings in the MLS).
