2019 Wayne County Tax Foreclosure Auction

Hello Regrid Customers,

There were many of you that asked to see the "2019 Wayne County Tax Foreclosure Auction" data on the Regrid platform. We made this property tax data available to the public a few days ago and wanted to share where you can access it within the Regrid site. 

 

Note that Loveland has its headquarters in Detroit, MI and we spend a lot of time and resources tracking local property and tax foreclosure - to help people in the community avoid tax foreclosure, as well as pointing out how destructive the tax foreclosure process and auctions have been to Detroit (as you can see in this VICE News HBO video that includes our CEO discussing the problems —

https://youtu.be/gHLaWw_PnQY ), and advocating for policies that will improve the situation.

We ask that if you participate in the auction that you do so humanely as many properties are occupied. We do not support the auction as it’s currently conducted, but we share it because we believe it’s important for people to see what is happening.

 

You can view it directly here on the Regrid platform & add the dataset -https://landgrid.com/us/mi/wayne/detroit#d=21040&b=neighborhoods&t=data

 

Below are the full set of instructions to access the data & layer on the Regrid Platform once you have signed in to your account:
