Can you buy a house for tax sale before the actual auction?

Property next door to my own is going for tax sale. I very much would like to purchase it for the listed price- is there anyway I can purchase before it goes for auction? Also, (i am very new to all of this!) how does a tax auction sale work- are the bids known or are they all silent. I dont want to pay much more than the upset price obviously! I live in PA if that matters.

You could look up on the tax records and find the owner. Talk to them and see if you can buy it direct from them before the auction.

As to how the auction works you need to look online and find the rules for your area. Some places it don’t by sealed bits, and some places it a normal action.
