I believe in Caddo Parish, there's a 5% fee off the top plus 1% a month. I know someone that buys tax sales that will more than likely be redeemed, but where else can you find a 17% return guaranteed?



It's the same in every parish. 5% on the top, 1% per month, after three years the property is yours.

If it isn't properly noticed, though, it's a due process violation and can be annulled for at least 10 years, maybe longer. I do some work in this area so I can tell you it's not as simple as you might think.

Voters in Louisiana in November just approved a constitutional amendment reducing the 3 year waiting period to 18 months. It was one of only two of the proposed 14 amendments I voted yes on.
