29
00:01:29.599 --> 00:01:33.079

30
00:01:33.200 --> 00:01:36.680
<v Speaker 3>leans downstairs with the county Clerk's office to make sure

31
00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:40.959

00:01:54.079 --> 00:01:57.879
<v Speaker 1>got your t's crossed and your eyes dotted still the

37
00:01:57.959 --> 00:02:00.599
<v Speaker 1>other way around. Yes, because of your eyes you're going

38
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:03.319
<v Speaker 1>to be in a mess. But anyway, this is great.

39
00:02:03.319 --> 00:02:08.319
<v Speaker 1>Cash only, right it is. It is cash only, you know,

40
00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:09.919

41
00:02:10.479 --> 00:02:12.599
<v Speaker 2>The green dollars is what you got to have in

42
00:02:12.639 --> 00:02:14.400
<v Speaker 2>your hand when you make the bid.

43
00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:18.080
<v Speaker 1>All right. So now we've got we've got the properties

44
00:02:18.120 --> 00:02:20.800
<v Speaker 1>lined up here, and we have about fifty of them

45
00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:23.400
<v Speaker 1>this year. That's a lot, it is.

46
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:26.080
<v Speaker 2>It's a little more than what we had last year.

47
00:02:26.439 --> 00:02:29.400
<v Speaker 2>So but it has dwindled down a lot. I mean,

48
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:34.199
<v Speaker 2>what weeks ago, and we've had a lot of day

49
00:02:34.199 --> 00:02:34.919

51
00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:40.639
<v Speaker 1>That would be good, That would be good. But as

52
00:02:40.680 --> 00:02:43.879
<v Speaker 1>it stands, it's at fifty and the subject to change.

53
00:02:43.879 --> 00:02:44.800
<v Speaker 1>I guess we could think.

54
00:02:44.759 --> 00:02:48.240
<v Speaker 2>It is they have until the cell starts to come

55
00:02:48.280 --> 00:02:49.360
<v Speaker 2>in and get all caught up.

56
00:02:49.520 --> 00:02:52.840
