Optional Services
Where personal contacts are required pursuant to Revenue & Taxation Code Section 3704.7(a)(b), Curative Title Solutions can perform that service on behalf of your county providing irrefutable evidence of the statutory requirements. This report will contain all the details of the personal contact that will assure you all statutory requirements have been met.
Perhaps more importantly however, is the emphasis placed by Curative Title Solutions on achieving redemption by relaying to the owner/occupants the serious nature of the impending tax sale and the options, if any, that may be available to the taxpayer for redemption of the property. The details of this service are as follows:

- Prepare a written report logging each attempt and the details of the contact attempt.
- Include electronic photo(s) of property in JPEG format.
- Provide documentation evidencing service of written notice executed pursuant to RTC §3704.7 in event that contact is unsuccessful.
Site Visit Report
- Modeled after the personal contact report described above, Curative Title Solutions also offers a “Site Visit Report” with the same essential goal of achieving redemption of the tax-defaulted property. Many treasurer-tax collectors have encountered difficulties in definitively determining vacant residential developed property pursuant to 3691(b)(3), and have determined that an on-site inspection of tax-defaulted properties that are assessed with improvements results in a higher redemption rate and greatly reduced potential for future litigation. The details of this service are as follows: Improved Property Contact Services
