Sale list only has parcel # and opening bid

The clerk published a thin list — not a PropStream-style property card. Max bid needs an after-repair value: enter comps below, open the county appraiser, or fetch details if a property API key is configured.

Liens that survive

Certificate stage is a lien interest. Collector’s deed process after redemption may cut off most junior private liens; federal and some governmental liens can survive. Full title search before deed petition.

Quiet title

Petition for collector’s deed is required; quiet title is often still used to strengthen insurable title on St. Louis-west inventory.

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)

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.

Before you bid

The county published no assessed value for this parcel, no property provider returned a market estimate, and no comparable-sales figure has been entered. Enter a comparable-sales estimate below and every figure on this page recalculates — the engine needs one number, not a full appraisal.
