Sheriff staff will not pass on messages to inmates. It is recommended that you write the inmate a letter.

Q.

A clear title is not guaranteed to properties sold at a sheriff sale. All sales are considered "buyers beware".  It is recommended that you contact an attorney and research the property before bidding.
