BidDeed Academy — plain-English education for Florida tax deed and foreclosure auctions, and how to use BidDeed.AI to work them.
BidDeed Academy teaches two things, in plain English:
- The auctions. How Florida tax deed sales and foreclosure auctions actually work — the process, the timelines, the due diligence, and the traps that cost new bidders real money.
- The tool. How to use BidDeed.AI — the auction calendar, the property pages, the SIGNAL$ Max Bid, and Deed, the AI agent — to find, price and win the right lots.
No prior auction experience assumed. Everything here is education, not advice — read the disclaimer at the bottom of every page.
The curriculum
Tax Deeds 101
What a tax deed is, how a property travels from unpaid taxes to the auction block, the due-diligence checklist, red flags, and the glossary.
Foreclosures 101
Florida's judicial foreclosure process from complaint to clerk's sale, the timeline, and how foreclosure strategy differs from tax deed strategy.
How to Use BidDeed
Browse the calendar, filter to a shortlist, read a property page, and understand the SIGNAL$ Max Bid and the BID / REVIEW / SKIP verdicts.
Lien Priority and the Wipe Rule
Which liens die at a Florida auction and which ones follow the property to you — the base rule, how the sale type decides it, and the four ways priority surprises people.
Case Studies
Real and composite walkthroughs: how a lot gets priced, what the ceiling looked like, and what happened at the sale.
County Playbooks
County-by-county operating notes — starting with Miami-Dade and Suwannee — including which auction platform each clerk uses.
If you do one thing first
Open the live auction calendar. Reading about auctions clicks much faster when you are looking at real lots with real sale dates.

BidDeed Academy is investor education for Florida foreclosure and tax deed auctions. It is not legal, financial, tax or investment advice, and it is not a title opinion or title insurance. Auction rules, deadlines and statutes change, and every property is different — verify what you read here against the county clerk, the official auction record and your own attorney or title professional before you bid. BidDeed.AI informs the human bidder; it never bids for you.
