Straight from the county

We read the sheriff and treasurer sites themselves. Every listing carries a link back to the record it came from, so you can verify it in one click.

Priced against assessed value

Where the county publishes both a bid and an assessed value, you see the spread. It is a starting point for due diligence, not an appraisal.

Re-checked nightly, stamped

Sources are re-read every night and each listing shows when it was last confirmed. Stale ones are flagged rather than quietly left up.

Where we actually have listings

871 of 2,839 counties across 40 states. A state only goes live after a real scrape produces dated records; we would rather show a small honest map than a big fake one. See the full county breakdown.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I buy properties directly on DeedFinder?

DeedFinder helps you find deals. Each listing includes the county source and contact information so you can bid at the auction or contact the county directly.

What's the difference between a sheriff sale and a tax sale?

A sheriff sale happens when a homeowner defaults on their mortgage — the court orders the property sold to pay the lender. A tax sale happens when the owner hasn't paid property taxes — the county sells the tax lien or the property itself to recover unpaid taxes. Tax sales often have lower starting bids.

How is this different from Zillow or Realtor.com?

Those sites show properties listed by real estate agents at market prices. DeedFinder shows properties being sold by counties and courts at auction — often for a fraction of market value. These listings never appear on traditional real estate sites.

Why are some properties so cheap?

Tax sale properties sell for the amount of back taxes owed, not the property's market value. A house assessed at $100,000 might sell for $5,000 in back taxes. Sheriff sales typically start at the judgment amount, which is often well below market value.

How often is data updated?

Supported sources in our covered states are checked on a schedule, and listings show when the data was last refreshed. Auction details can change, so confirm the date and terms at the linked original source before acting.

Is this legal?

Yes. All data comes from public records that are freely available. We organize and present this information in a more accessible format.
