Tax deed research desk

Know which deeds are worth a bid before the sale closes.

xDeed screens every deed on a county's sale list as soon as it posts. Liens and flood zones get a warning sign, clean lots get a green light, and every lot gets a grade, so you spend your time on the few worth buying.

Invites go out a few at a time. No spam, ever.

What it does

The due diligence, done before you open the deed.

Every finding comes with where it came from and when it was checked. If something can't be confirmed, xDeed says so and marks it for a person to look at. It never fills in a guess.

Red flags and green lights

Federal liens, other liens, flood zones and wetlands show as a warning sign on the list. Deeds that pass every check get a green light.

A grade for every lot

Each deed gets a buy grade from A+ to F, scored out of 100 against your own budget and buying rules, so the best lots rise to the top.

A checklist with sources

Each deed page lists what's been checked with the county, the city and the public maps, with the source and the date beside every answer.

We contact the offices

Press one button and our research team emails or calls the treasurer, assessor and code office for you. Their answers land on the checklist.

Street View and the map

See the lot from the street and from above, next to its flood and wetlands checks, without opening five other websites.

Every sale on one clock

Your interested deeds, their closing times and your budget on one dashboard, so nothing closes while you're not looking.

How it works

From sale list to bid in four steps.

  1. A sale list posts

    xDeed's research team picks up new county sale lists as soon as they're published.

  2. Every deed is screened

    Flood, wetlands and address checks run on every open lot, and liens are flagged.

  3. You pick the green lights

    Sort by grade, mark the ones you like, and set the most you'll pay for each.

  4. Finish the checklist

    Ask us to contact the offices, or order the records search, before you bid.

Records search

The county records search, priced up front.

Order a search of the county's recorded documents (deeds, mortgages and releases, liens and judgments) right from the deed page. You see the price before you order: the county's own page fees plus a small service fee. That usually comes to about $20.

County page fees (12 pages at $1)$12.00
xDeed service fee$6.00
You pay$18.00
Example. The price shown on each deed uses that county's fees. A records search is screening research. It is not title insurance or a legal opinion.

Get on the list.
