: Hey Ward:

: Quick question... Normally a property is eligible for tax sale once 5 years of unpaid property taxes have passed, correct?.. My question, if I locate a property that falls into that category, and it looks abandoned or is vacant land, is there any way to merely pay current the taxes and try some sort of adverse possession?.. Or must i have been paying consecutively for the duration?... any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Sounds like a perfect property for adverse possession, which must be claimed in an "open and notorious" manner amoung other requirements. Check title for liens; try to find any owners. Put a sign on the property reading "For Information Concerning this Property Contact Owner at (Your Phone Number). Record a memo with country recorder indicating you are beginning adverse possession on the property. Check Calif. statutes for other requirements.
