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).

garysearsParticipantA few random thought about this event…
I find it totally believable that one man could shoot that many people on a military base. I work on one. No one is armed except for base police. Seriously, any serviceman could cause a similar amount of damage tomorrow, on any San Diego area military base. The base security is focused on external threats more than internal and once you have gained access to base (ID and vehicle pass) there is no special security or physical barrier stopping anyone from doing something similar.
On a base the size of Fort Hood it could take a long time for word to get to the police and for them to respond. All accounts have the shooting going on for 3-5 minutes at least. That is plenty of time to cause that many victims. You had people trapped in a crowded building with no ability to defend themselves. Combat trained or not, an unarmed person has no chance against a shooter except to flee.
I don’t see what the harm is in calling a spade a spade. I think the administration is hesitant to call this terrorism to try and distance itself from the previous administration where absolutely everything was all about the War on Terror. Even if this guy turns out to be a terrorist sympathizer and not an actual recruited cell member, there is no practical difference.
This will be a military trial since it occurred by a military member on a military installation. Word is the last military death sentence carried out was in 1961, despite numerous inmates on death row. I think he’ll get the sentence but we’ll have to see if it is ever carried out.
Finally, I wish people would give the second police officer, Mark Todd, some credit as well. The details aren’t clear in the MSM but it looks like he is the one who actually took the guy down and secured him. He likely saved the life of Sgt. Munley as well.

September 23, 2009 at 9:24 PM in reply to: How Long Does It Take Before the Bank Takes The Houses Back? #460877garysearsParticipantThe amount of time you can go without paying property tax before the county sells the property at the tax sale is at least 6.5 years.
I researched this on the county tax collector site (http://www.sdtreastax.com) after I found a property that has gone 5 years without paying the property tax.
Five years after the property is in default it becomes subject to the county’s power to sell. It isn’t in default until the end of the first year with no payments. So the first year of not paying is free. Then, after five more years of no payments, the county can sell at the tax sale (and must within 3 years). The tax sale is in February and July is the default month. 6.5 years from last tax payment made to tax sale date can be safely assumed.
The June 8, 2009 Notice of Impending Power to Sell Tax Defaulted Properties does not list the property I am watching (last current in June 2004, no payments made 2005-2009). The most recent properties to be served notice: PROPERTY TAX DEFAULTED ON JUNE 30, 2004 FOR THE TAXES ASSESSED
AND OTHER CHARGES FOR THE 2003-2004 FISCAL YEAR.This means the taxes for these properties were last current on June 30, 2003. They will make the February 2010 tax sale.
