Deal Check: Not enough data

Why

Published published minimum bid $1,600 is under 5% of the official value $230,200; this is usually a placeholder or a no-minimum later sale, not the real price. Check the official notice.

Deal Check is a simple math check of published numbers, not an appraisal and not financial advice. It does not know the condition, liens, title problems, or back taxes. Inspect from the street, run a title/lien search, and verify everything with the county before you bid.
