Avoid The Auction

Hello,

My name is Brian and I'm new to this. I will have approximatley 7k to invest with student loan money. This is my one shot. I want to join the success academy but I've found a property worth $108k on the tax lien auction block min bid is $1.4K. I don't have enough time to get my documents to participate in the auction.

What should I do? Please help. Can I go directly to the owner and pay the tax to keep it out of auction and pay him to leave? Any help will be grateful The Auction is on September 6th

What state?

What state are you located in? Does the owner have a redemption period to pay back the taxes after the auction? There may also be other liens on the property if you pay the taxes before the auction.
