Liens that survive

Upset: mortgages/judgments typically survive. Judicial: free and clear of most liens after proper notice; analyze federal tax liens separately. Strict RETSL notice compliance required for valid sale.

Quiet title

Common for Upset purchases; often still used after Judicial for insurance comfort.

Verify before you bid

This record was compiled from the published sale list. Parcels are pulled, redeemed, and re-priced up to the moment of sale. Confirm the lot is still in the sale, and confirm the opening bid, directly with the county.

Your assumptions

After-repair value (ARV)

Override the derived estimate with real comps

Rehab budget

You cannot inspect before bidding — budget for the worst plausible condition

Known surviving liens

Municipal code enforcement, special assessments, federal tax liens

Target margin — 30%

Required profit as a share of ARV. 30% is a common floor for tax-sale flips.

How that number is built

Provider market estimate of $76,000. This is an as-is valuation, not an after-repair one — enter your own comparable-sales figure if the property needs work.

After-repair value: $76,000
Selling costs on exitassumed 8.0% of ARV — agent commission plus seller-side closing.: −$6,080
Rehabassumed No rehab budget entered — assumed $0. Tax-sale parcels are sold unseen and un-inspected; this is rarely correct.: −$0
Quiet title (required)assumed Midpoint of the typical PA range ($1,500–$5,000, ~4 months).: −$3,250
Deed recording and transferassumed Typical PA recording and deed issuance cost.: −$250
Holding costs (6 months)assumed Taxes, insurance, and securing the property at ~$114/month.: −$684
Surviving liensassumed Assumed $0 — not verified. Municipal code-enforcement liens, special assessments, and federal tax liens can survive the sale.: −$0
Target profit (30% of ARV): −$22,800
Maximum bid: $42,936

Before you bid

Rehab is assumed to be $0. You cannot inspect these properties before bidding — budget for the worst plausible condition.
Surviving liens assumed $0. UPSET SALE vs JUDICIAL SALE is the single most important distinction in Pennsylvania and this row cannot express it. An upset sale (72 P.S. §§ 5860.601-609) conveys subject to existing mortgages, judgments and liens, which are NOT divested; a judicial sale (§§ 5860.610-612) is ordered free and clear. Establish which one a parcel is in before treating survivingLiens as zero.
Pennsylvania county assessments run against base years that can be decades stale, and the spread is extreme — Bucks assesses at about 5.6% of market and Schuylkill at 100%, an 18x range inside one state. The Common Level Ratio is a county MEDIAN published for realty transfer tax equalisation, not a per-parcel appraisal, so deriving ARV from it multiplies any error in that one parcel's assessment by the factor: in Bucks a $50,000 assessment derives an ARV near $893,000. Treat a derived ARV in a high-factor county as a research lead, not a valuation, and get comparable sales before bidding.
PA has 67 counties on a different assessment ratio (42001, 42003, 42005, 42007, 42009, 42011, 42013, 42015, 42017, 42019, 42021, 42023, 42025, 42027, 42029, 42031, 42033, 42035, 42037, 42039, 42041, 42043, 42045, 42047, 42049, 42051, 42053, 42055, 42057, 42059, 42061, 42063, 42065, 42067, 42069, 42071, 42073, 42075, 42077, 42079, 42081, 42083, 42085, 42087, 42089, 42091, 42093, 42095, 42097, 42099, 42101, 42103, 42105, 42107, 42109, 42111, 42113, 42115, 42117, 42119, 42121, 42123, 42125, 42127, 42129, 42131, 42133). No FIPS was supplied, so the statewide ratio was used — pass `fips` if this parcel is in one of them.
