Property sold by the government is not subject to usual laws of supply and demand. Their only interest is in trying to recover a certain debt that has been incurred, not what the actual market value is. You will be notified of sales as a potential bidder once you get your name on their mailing list. Then you can go directly to the IRS to make your own incredible deal on property selling far below market value. IRS property is sold either by public or sealed bid auction.
Individual agents are responsible for selling property within their divisions.
That means you won't have to deal with a central or district office to obtain information about property being auctioned. Contact an IRS agent nearest you by referring to your telephone directory. Ask for information that will allow your name to be placed on mailing list throughout the country. Also, request a copy of the Internal Revenue Service Code Manual Part V Chapter 300 at your local library to learn more about how the IRS auctions off confiscated property. Unclaimed parcels are opened at dead parcel branches to determine if the property can be returned.
